Generally light to locally moderate northwest winds will continue
into tonight. Breezy evening winds expected where coastal jets
from south Pigeon Point and along the Big Sur coast south of
Point Sur. Winds will briefly shift out of the south to southwest
into Monday over much of the waters as a weak cold front moves
through. Northwest winds will quickly return by Monday night and
then increase into mid week. Seas remain mixed with a moderate
west to northwest swell and a longer period southerly swell. A
second larger northwest swell will arrive Monday night with seas
building into Tuesday. The combination of stronger winds and
building swell will result in hazardous seas conditions, particularly
for smaller vessels.
