.SYNOPSIS...
South and southwesterly flow will prevail through the weekend with
periods of advisory level conditions possible. The first being
this morning as a complex of thunderstorms moves over area waters
and a potential wake low (bringing with it strengthened southerly
flow) develops. These winds could last up to 6 to 9 hours
producing higher winds and seas. Large scale southerly flow
decreases some Saturday, which will lead to borderline
cautionary/advisory level conditions with trends continuing into
Sunday and the upcoming week. Showers and thunderstorm chances
will be elevated through the weekend, especially Saturday
afternoon/evening as the main upper level system pushes through.
