Dry conditions will continue until this weekend when low  chances (15-20%) for precipitation return over area waters with  our next front. This frontal passage will also shift winds to the  north-northeast with fresh to strong (BF 5-6) conditions and seas  at 6-10 feet. This could lead to the issuance of a Small Craft  Advisory closer to time, while near Gale force gusts could become  possible offshore.    $$
