.SYNOPSIS FOR CALIFORNIA WATERS...High pressure will persist
across the waters through Sat night while slowly weakening. A low
pressure trough will continue along the California coast through
Fri, then weaken Fri night through Sat night. A weakening cold
front will approach the northern waters early Sat, move slowly E
and SE across the N waters late Sat and Sat night, then move
across the central waters Sun into Sun night before dissipating.
A warm front will lift NE of the northern waters Mon into Mon
night as high pressure builds to the W of the S waters and a low
pressure trough begins to strengthen near the southern California
coast. Another cold front will approach the NW portion Mon night.
The front will become stationary as it moves into northern waters
Tue before beginning to lift N as a warm front Tue night.
