.SYNOPSIS FOR CALIFORNIA WATERS...A cold front will move S into
the northern waters today, then dissipate over the central waters
tonight into early Sun. A trough along the central and northern
California coast will shift E late today into tonight as low
pressure develops inland. The low will extend a trough W across
northern California late Sun through Mon. High pressure centered
far W of the northern waters will spread E Mon through Tue, then
gradually shift S and weaken Tue night and Wed as another cold
front moves S into the northern waters. The California coastal
trough will reform late Wed into Wed night.
