321 AM EDT TUE SEP 17 2002

WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO SAG THROUGH THE AREA TODAY...RESULTING IN 
GENERALLY FAIR WEATHER BUT PROVIDING LITTLE RELIEF FROM MUGGY 
CONDITIONS AS FLOW RAPIDLY BECOMES ONSHORE IN THE WAKE OF THE 
FRONT.  LITTLE OR NO FOCUS FOR PRECIPITATION THE NEXT 24 HOURS SO 
POPS WILL BE LIMITED TO 10 PERCENT UNDER PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES. 

RETURN FLOW SETS UP WEDNESDAY AND INTERACTS WITH A SHORT WAVE 
FORECAST TO PASS THROUGH WED INTO THU.  THIS COULD PRODUCE SCATTERED 
CONVECTION...PARTICULARLY DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS.  

BEYOND THURSDAY...EXPECT WIDELY SCATTERED DIURNAL CONVECTION UNTIL 
SUNDAY WHEN AN APPROACHING FRONT BRINGS SLIGHTLY HIGHER CHANCES FOR 
PRECIPITATION.  

MARINE:  NO FLAGS THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH LIGHT WINDS AND SEAS 
GENERALLY 4 FT OR LESS.  NW WINDS TO BECOME NE TODAY...E TONIGHT AND 
SE WED WITH SE FLOW TO CONTINUE INTO THE WEEKEND.
