There are some timing differences with the initial wave energy, but I suspect the southerly gradient will have increased by Monday morning. As the mixed layer develops, stronger southwesterly winds will be able to mix down by the afternoon. There is a 30% chance that wind gusts will exceed 30 mph Monday afternoon. There is a 30% chance for greater than 0.01" of rainfall Monday afternoon and night. .MONDAY... * Sky/Weather.........Partly cloudy.
