WILL GROW INTO A RIDGE BY THIS AFTERNOON AND THEN GROW EACH DAY
THROUGH TUESDAY. OFFSHORE FLOW INCREASES EACH DAY ALTHOUGH TODAY AND
MONDAY HAVE LITTLE UPPER SUPPORT. TUESDAY HAS A LITTLE MORE SUPPORT
THUS THINK THERE WILL BE SOME BREEZES MONDAY BUT NOTHING MUCH MORE
THAN 15 MPH. TUESDAY WILL LIKELY HAVE SOME MORNING GUSTS.

TEMPS WILL INCREASE EACH DAY WITH VLYS SEEING SOME 80S MONDAY AND THEN
THE INTERIOR COASTAL SXNS HITTING THE 80 MARK TUESDAY. LOWS WILL BE
TRICKY WITH WILDLY FLUCTUATING VALUES WITHIN CLOSE PROXIMITY OF EACH
OTHER. IT ALL DEPENDS ON WHERE THE WIND IS AND WHERE IT IS NOT.

ADJUSTED ZONES AND FORECASTS FOR HIGHER LOWS AND HIGHS.
