 High pressure from the gulf into the Atlantic will continue to
 produce a light to moderate easterly to southeasterly fetch at 10 to
 15 kt over the local waters this afternoon. A cold front is expected
 to move through the region bringing northerly winds around 25kt
 Sunday into early next week. Small Craft Advisories have been posted

 Tuesday but remain elevated. Wednesday, winds will shift to a more
 SE direction and ease a bit to around 10-15 kt, possibly remaining
 that way for the remainder of the week.
