.SYNOPSIS FOR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA WATERS...Generally light and
variable winds are expected for the waters through much of
Tuesday. Northerlies and steep waves increase again Tuesday
evening through Wednesday. Wind waves will make the sea state
hazardous to small crafts Wednesday morning with a square height
at 6-7ft with as many seconds of period, and so a small craft
advisory is out. Also a longer mid period northwest swell will
fill in Wednesday at 3-5ft at 12-13 seconds.
