likely remain largely as showers. Winds will turn northwesterly
across the open waters today as the aforementioned cold front
slides out. Gusts to 15 knots are possible through sunset.

anticipated. Winds will become light and variable through late
week as high pressure of 30.1 inches builds in from the Great
