SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BECOMES MORE DOMINANT AS UPPER RIDGING MOVES
EAST AND SUBSIDENCE ALOFT BRINGS ANY LINGERING RAIN TO AN END.
TEMPERATURES WARM UP A BIT AS CLOUDS BREAK UP AND UPPER RIDGING

CRITERIA AS LOW PRESSURE EDGES AWAY FROM THE COAST.

LONG TERM...AS LOW PRESSURE STRENGTHENS OFFSHORE...NORTH TO
NORTHEAST WINDS WILL STRENGTHEN ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY. WILL LIKELY
