.SYNOPSIS FOR SOUTHEAST ALASKA INNER CHANNELS COASTAL WATERS...
A ridge of high pressure builds over the gulf and persists to
the end of the week. With ridging over the gulf, an increased
pressure gradient will increase winds near the coast. Daily sea
breezes will develop as well, increasing winds for parts of the
inner channels.
