.SYNOPSIS FOR CALIFORNIA WATERS...High pressure centered NW of
the waters will persist through Sun, then gradually build S Sun
night through Mon night, while a low pressure trough continues
along the California coast. A cold front will approach the far
northern waters Tue night into Wed night as a low pressure center
tracks from NW to SE across the northern California waters. The
weakening cold front will slowly move south Thu into Thu night
with high pressure building in behind. The USCG transmitter at
Cambria California is experiencing technical difficulties.
Technicians are aware of the problem. We apologize for any
inconvenience.
