.SYNOPSIS...

Gentle to moderate north-northeasterly winds induced by building
surface high pressure will make for favorable boating conditions
over the next several days. The afternoon sea breeze could bring
directional changes to the winds in the afternoon, but winds will
generally remain under 15 knots through the week. An increase in
easterly flow is likely by Friday which could lead to cautionary
conditions heading into the weekend.
