.SYNOPSIS...A cold front will move E and SE from the southern
Califoria waters today as low pressure redevelops over inland
portions of central and northern California. The low will move E
and NE tonight as a low pressure trough passes SE across the
waters, and a strong cold front approaches from the NW. The
strong cold front will move SE over the N and central waters Sun,
and reach the S waters Sun night as low pressure forms near the
central California coast. The front will slowly cross the S
waters Mon into Mon night as the low slides SE along the coast.
The low will weaken near or over southern California Tue as a
high pressure ridge develops over the outer portion of the N
waters. The low will likely dissipate Tue night as the ridge
persists over the NW portion of the area. The ridge will
dissipate Wed as a warm front lifts NE over the northern and
central waters. The warm front will pass inland by Wed night as a
