.DISCUSSION...
Westerly winds will persist tonight and through the day Monday.
While winds will lose gustiness overnight and Monday morning,
gusts of 20-25 mph are expected to return Monday afternoon.
A weak surface low pressure system will approach Monday night.
This will switch the winds around to a south, southwesterly
direction with speeds around 10-15 mph expected on Tuesday. There
could be some variability in wind direction/speed Tuesday
afternoon depending on the track of the surface low, however it is
expected that winds shift back around to the northwest by late
Tuesday afternoon/evening, best guess at the wind shift timing
right now is roughly 4-6 pm Tuesday.
