.SYNOPSIS FOR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA WATERS...Fresh to strong
northerly winds are expected tonight and Sunday. Locally stronger
winds with gale force gusts will be localized in areas just
downwind of Cape Mendocino. Seas will mainly be wind driven and
steep around 5 to 7 feet. There is also a small southerly swell.
Winds are expected to diminish slightly early in the work week
before increasing again later in the week.

Stronger than normal tidal currents from the lingering tsunami
surges continue in harbors and channel inlets, especially around
Crescent City. These will continue to gradually weaken.
