MARINE

While some clearing has been observed on parts of the ocean waters, fog is still anticipated to remain an issue on the ocean until late this evening or early tonight when it finally clears. A Dense Fog Advisory has therefore been extended, as a result.

A Small Craft Advisory remains in place on the ocean until tomorrow morning due to lingering higher seas.

Sub-SCA conditions are then anticipated until Saturday evening when 25 kt gusts may return to offshore waters. We'll then drop back below criteria through Saturday night.

An approaching frontal system will lead to climbing seas and stronger winds. Gusts of 35-40kt are possible on Sunday. Therefore, a Gale Watch has been issued.

Decreasing winds and seas on Mon, then all waters blw SCA lvls Tue.
