.SYNOPSIS FOR CALIFORNIA WATERS...High pressure will continue

W of the area tonight. A surface trough will move across the N

Fri, and then clear well S of the area by Fri night. High
pressure will rebuild E behind the cold front Fri through Sat,
then weaken Sat night. Another cold front will move into the N

Sun through Mon night. Behind this cold front, stronger high
