.UPDATE...
Issued at 946 AM EDT Mon Mar 25 2024
An overall quiet day is in store for the region with only gusty
winds expected. The forecast remains on track and no adjustments
were needed. Look for easterly winds to increase later this morning
as the the surface high pressure lifts off to the northeast and the
deepening low over the Plains squeezes the gradient over our area.
Breezy winds will linger into tomorrow and will remain the only
hazard for the time being. A Small Craft Advisory will remain in
effect through Tuesday morning as the gusty conditions will lead to
rough seas. High temperatures will max out near average for this
time of year with lows tonight staying slightly above normal.
