Northwest winds will continue to diminish into the early morning.
A series of frontal systems are then expected with the first
approaching the region on Tuesday causing winds to shift out of
the south and increase beginning in the morning. Winds will
further strengthen Tuesday night into Wednesday morning when gale
force gusts will be possible over the northern outer waters. These
winds will generate steep waves resulting in hazardous seas
conditions, particularly for smaller vessels. Southerly winds
will ease Wednesday and then persist through much of the forecast
period. Moderate northwest seas will persist through mid week with
a weaker southerly swell. The primary swell will shift more
westerly mid week.
