The gradient between subtropical high pressure and lower pressure over the SW US is supporting a moderate to fresh NW breeze. As the high pressure slowly encroaches towards the coast, the pressure gradient will tighten, causing the wind speed to increase through the weekend. A fresh to strong NW breeze will persist through next week with the potential for gale force winds by next weekend. Significant wave heights will mostly be dominated by wind driven waves, though there is a moderate NW swell and a low SW swell mixed in. $$ PZZ570-090430- Waters from Point Arena to Point Reyes 10-60 NM- 834 AM PDT Sat Jun 8 2024 ...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY IN EFFECT THROUGH MONDAY MORNING... .TODAY...NW wind 20 to 25 kt.
