.SYNOPSIS FOR THE SOUTHERN OREGON COASTAL WATERS...Gusty north
winds will continue as low pressure moves southward offshore.
This will bring steep seas to the outer waters beyond 10 nm from

and evenings and especially south of Cape Blanco. Conditions will
likely be hazardous to small craft at times due to gusty winds
and steep seas.
