.SYNOPSIS...Inland Low pressure will move E and NE tonight as a
pair of low pressure troughs pass SE across the waters, and a
strong cold front approaches from the NW. The strong cold front
will move SE over the N and central waters Sun, and reach the S
waters Sun night as low pressure forms near the central
California coast. The front will slowly cross the S waters Mon
into Mon night as the low slides SE along the coast. The low will
weaken near or over southern California Tue as a high pressure
ridge develops over the outer portion of the N waters. The low
will likely dissipate Tue night as the ridge persists over the NW
portion of the area. The ridge will dissipate Wed as a warm front
lifts NE over the northern and central waters. The warm front
will pass inland by Wed night as a strong cold front moves SE
over the region Wed night into Thu. High pressure will build to
the W of the waters Thu night.
