A very unsettled week with several winter weather patterns moving through this week. This week has a high probability of rain for Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. High temperatures will again be in the 50's with lows into the 40's and 30's. Water conditions will be mostly cautious to hazardous all week, with the exception of Monday.

Surf waves heights will be 0-2, 1-2, 2-3 feet with gustier winds all week.
