.SYNOPSIS FOR SOUTHEAST ALASKA INNER CHANNELS COASTAL WATERS...
High pressure persists over the central gulf through mid next
week at least. NW winds of fresh to strong breezes, 17 to
27 kts, continue along the eastern gulf coast. These winds will
persist through the weekend into the start of the week, due to a
tightening pressure gradient. Inner channel winds are expected
to remain on the lighter side aside from sea breezes in the
afternoons and evenings.
