.WHAT HAS CHANGED... Highs adjusted upward today, especially along the coast.

.KEY MESSAGES... 1. Much warmer this morning along the coast, highs raised today before cooler easterly winds develop this afternoon.

2. Periods of fog and drizzle possible through late tonight, ending with a period of rain from a cold frontal passage on Sunday.

3. Cooler, quieter conditions settle in mid next week.

.KEY MESSAGE 1... Temperatures have warmed above forecast highs along most coastal locations. Northerly winds and more sunshine have allowed for this quick warmup. Much cooler air will move in later this afternoon as winds become easterly.

Highs are now forecast to get into the upper 60s to lower 70s, before dropping off quickly mid to late afternoon. Leaned toward the the latest HRRR.

.KEY MESSAGE 2... High pressure builds north of the area today as a low pressure system develops well west of the area.

Following a cold frontal passage, high pressure north of the area shifts east through the day allowing N winds veer to the ENE, reinforcing a more marine airmass back over the area late today . The NE flow also brings the chance of low stratus and fog development tonight as a strongly inverted low level will trap moisture in the BL.

The weak front once again stalls near or just south of the area tonight. As the frontal system from the west approaches into Sunday, the front may move back north as a weak warm front, allowing for the development of scattered showers over the area late tonight. The associated cold front will gradually push through on Sunday, bringing a period of rainfall to the entire area as the front pushes through. Instability will be low but a few rumbles of thunder can't be ruled out along with pockets of moderate to possibly briefly heavy rainfall. Total rainfall accumulations of 0.25-0.5 inches are possible across the entire area.

Following the frontal passage, conditions look to dry out as high pressure noses in from the south Sunday night into Monday.

.KEY MESSAGE 3... Weak front moves through Monday night into Tuesday, with conditions turning cooler and quieter behind it through mid next week. A few scattered showers, perhaps even mixing with wet snow across the interior, are possible with the frontal passage early Tuesday AM, but coverage appears spotty and Quantitative Precipitation Forecast is light.

Surface high pressure then builds over the region in its wake with dry conditions expected. The high ushers in a cool Canadian air mass, with daytime temperatures likely in the 40s and 50s, or about 5 to 10 degrees below normal for early April. These cooler conditions become more seasonable by Thursday with perhaps a warming trend into next weekend.

Marine
A Small Craft Advisory on the ocean has been extended through tonight. While conditions may drop below SCA (Small Craft Advisory) this morning, gusts will once again approach 25 kt this afternoon with seas right around 5 feet through tonight, even as gusts drop off.

An approaching frontal system will lead to climbing seas and stronger winds. Gusts of near 35 kt are possible on Sunday with a Gale Watch remaining in effect for portions of the ocean.

Decreasing winds and seas on Mon, then all waters below SCA (Small Craft Advisory) levels through at least Wednesday.
