.Synopsis for the Central California Coast and Bays Including

Marine Sanctuaries...

A deepening low pressure system with a surface cold front will
move southward across the coastal waters producing strengthening
winds as high as gales around frontal passage through this
evening. There is also the potential for thunderstorms which would
bring localized gales, steep wind waves, reduced visibility and a
slight chance for waterspouts associated with the strongest cells.
Showers will persist through Tuesday morning, but will become
more isolated while the winds decrease overall. Rough seas to 10
