Weather Situation

A high pressure ridge is directing moderate south to southwest winds along much of the coast, and these will become fresh to strong along the southern coast this afternoon or evening in response to a cold front slipping away to the south of the region. South to southwest winds will then continue along the coast on Thursday and tend south to southeast on Friday and Saturday as the ridge continues to be the dominant feature.
