Wet weather for this weekend.  Rain and showers are possible starting Friday Night through Monday Night with some unsettled weather and fronts moving through the region.  Rainfall amounts could reach an inch or so total, with higher amounts from central to northern NJ.  Temperatures will be unseasonably warm with high temperatures from the 50's and 60's and lows into the 40's. Water conditions are rated good for all locations.  Winds will be southerly for Saturday around 10-15 knots with seas to around 3 feet.  Sunday winds will change over to a more northeasterly flow up to 20 knots and building to 5 foot seas.  No anticipated Small Craft Advisories for the weekend, however Monday and Tuesday of next week are likely.  Surf conditions for the weekend will be normal with 0-2 and 1-2 foot wave heights.  

A warm front will approach the area from the southwest late Friday followed by low pressure systems along a cold front on Saturday.  This front will stall to the south on Sunday and then be pulled to the north as a warm front late Sunday into Monday.

Thanks,  Too bad the wind is changing to N.East for Sunday. Also looks like we will be getting wet and bounced around with 5 footers.
