.SYNOPSIS FOR CALIFORNIA WATERS...A stationary front draped
across the northern half of the waters will dissipate tonight
while low pressure strengthens just W of the northern waters. As
that low moves quickly NE and then N away from the area, a cold
front extending S from the low will move SE across the northern
and central waters tonight and Fri, reaching the southern waters
Fri night. On Sat, a new weaker area of low pressure will develop
W of the waters. It will move E into the northern waters Sat
night into Sun before weakening into a trough Sun night. The low
will drag a cold front across the central and southern waters Sun
night through Mon night. An additional weak and broad area of
troughing will extend S from broad low pressure N of the area and
will move E across the northern waters Mon into Tue. The low
should dissipate later Tue into Tue as weak ridging builds across
the area.
