.Synopsis for the Central California Coast and Bays Including
the Monterey Bay...Greater Farallones...and Cordell Bank National
Marine Sanctuaries...

Expect strong winds through Friday, with gale force gusts of 40
to 45 knots are possible through much of the week. The strong
winds will result in hazardous seas and steep wind waves with
significant wave heights reaching 10 to 14 feet in the outer
waters. Conditions will gradually improve over the weekend and
into next week as winds begin to ease. Chances of rain begin early
Saturday as a trough descends over the region.
