.SYNOPSIS...Northerly gentle to moderate breezes expected for the

coastal waters through the evening. Northwesterlies increase

tomorrow morning, increasing short period seas. These short period

seas will mix with a mid period northwest swell and another mid 

period southwest swell. Though not too steep, these opposing, 

perpendicular swells still make for a chaotic sea state. Expect

winds to first build in the southern water by mid morning before

spreading north through the day. Winds remain elevated through the

weekend with continued moderate to fresh breezes.

PZZ400-171030-

250 PM PDT Fri Oct 16 2026



.SYNOPSIS...Northerly gentle to moderate breezes expected for the

coastal waters through the evening. Northwesterlies increase

tomorrow morning, increasing short period seas. These short period

seas will mix with a mid period northwest swell and another mid 

period southwest swell. Though not too steep, these opposing, 

perpendicular swells still make for a chaotic sea state. Expect

winds to first build in the southern waters with near gale force

gusts south of Cape Mendocino by mid morning before spreading 

north to areas downwind of Cape Blanco through midday. Winds 

remain elevated through the weekend with continued moderate to 

fresh breezes.
