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


Moderate to fresh breezes out of the northwest through at least
the midweek, then ease to become gentle to moderate, and more
southwesterly. The far northwestern outer waters may occasionally
gust stronger to gale force late tonight and early Tuesday
morning, but afterwards weakens. Fair weather continues, though
marine stratus will create overcast skies through much of the
week. Significant wave heights will continue to build to 12-15
feet in the northern outer waters by Tuesday. As a result,
conditions in the outer waters will be hazardous for small craft
during the early portion of the week. Wave heights then gradually
diminish into the late week.
