.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure will hold north of the area allowing moisture to
increase across the peninsula over the next few days. Easterly
winds prevail through mid week becoming onshore each afternoon

develop over the land each afternoon/evening, drifting into the
Gulf later in the evening and early overnight hours.
