through this evening. Conditions improve tonight as a weak upper
trough passes through the region resulting in easing winds that
become westerly and lowering seas. A more impactful front is
expected Sunday into Monday, likely bringing the return of
conditions hazardous to small craft with increasing south winds
and an increasing west swell. Expect a period of moderate to heavy
rain Sunday afternoon into Monday morning.
