SYNOPSIS
Northerly winds build in the southern waters today creating localized short period waves. A large, long-period northwest swell is expect to enter the waters today and will last through the weekend. North winds ease Friday as a cold front moves north of the area. Short period seas are expected to ease, yet multiple incoming large, mid-period swells will keep seas elevated into the weekend. Moderate south winds are likely late Saturday north of Cape Mendocino as the cold front moves through leaving light north winds for Sunday.
