skies in the afternoon.
The high of the day is expected to be 62 at around 2 p.m. Temperatures
will mostly be in the upper 50s, lower 60s.

BOATING FORECAST
There is a small craft advisory today.
Close to shore, expect winds to blow from the northwest at 10 to 15
knots, becoming light overnight. There will be wind waves of 1 to 2 feet
and a western swell of 5 to 8 feet.
Further out, the morning finds us with winds from the northwest at 15
to 25 knots and wind waves of 2 to 4 feet. There will also be a northwest
swell of 12 to 14 feet, subsiding to 10 feet late. The winds should also
subside at night, blowing at 10 to 15 knots with wind waves of 1 to 2
feet.
SURF
That west-northwest swell is just going, going, close to being gone.
Expect it to fade some more today, which probably won't matter with
stormy conditions making it hard to surf.
