.SYNOPSIS FOR CALIFORNIA WATERS...High pressure over the N and
central waters will weaken tonight. A stationary front over the
northern waters will begin to retreat N-NE tonight as a warm
front. A stronger complex low pressure system will pass by to the
NW of the waters Wed and Wed night, dragging a strong cold front
E across the waters. The front will reach the southern waters Thu
and pass SE of the waters Thu night. Meanwhile, over the southern
waters, weak high pressure will drift back E over the southern
waters tonight through Wed night, eventually moving SE of the
area Thu. Thereafter, high pressure will build in from the W Thu
night through Fri night. A weak warm front will cross the
northern waters late Thu night into Fri night. High pressure will
then weaken W of the waters Sat and Sat night as a cold front
approaches from the NW Sat night. The cold front will move SE
across the N and central waters Sun and Sun night, with high
pressure rebuilding over the area behind the front.
