.Synopsis for Marianas Waters...
Light to moderate westerlies for the Marianas coastal waters for
today. Distant Super Typhoon Dolphin is generating a long-period
easterly swell that will reach the Marianas tonight, shifting
northerly by midweek. A monsoon pattern will introduce increasing
southwest to west winds and a building southwesterly swell by the
end of the weekend, which will most likely induce hazardous sea
conditions to small craft vessels.
