First week of Fall. The air is becoming crisp and the leaves are changing. This week should be mostly dry with a chance of showers Wednesday and Wednesday Night. Highs will be in the upper 60’s and 70’s with lows in the 40’s and 50’s. Humidity will be lower this week. We are approaching the season, where marine weather is constantly changing, even more than normal. Water conditions are rated good for all locations, except for Wednesday in southern locations and midshore to offshore. Gusty winds around 20 knots will start Tuesday and prevail into Wednesday with the passing front. Seas could build to 5 feet Tuesday into Wednesday with a chance of Small Craft Advisories. Surf will continue to be high/rough with moderate rip currents with waves 2-4 feet on Monday and 2-3 feet on Tuesday Morning. Waves will begin to subside Tuesday Afternoon and should remain 1-3 feet for the rest of the week.
High pressure building in from the east will move into the region on Monday before moving offshore. A cold front will approach our area on Wednesday afternoon and then cross the area Wednesday Night. High pressure will them build in from the Great Lakes Region for the end of the week.
