The National Weather Service in Seattle has issued a Small Craft
Advisory for hazardous seas...which is in effect from 4 AM to
4 PM PST Monday. 

* SEAS...W swell 10 feet at 14 seconds. 

* Wind and Waves...East wind 15 to 30 kt becoming north. Wind

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Small Craft Advisory means that wind speeds of 21 to 33 knots
are expected to produce hazardous wave conditions to small craft.
Inexperienced mariners, especially those operating smaller

A Small Craft Advisory for hazardous seas means that waves are
expected to be hazardous to small craft. Mariners should avoid
shoaling areas. Long period swell can sharpen into large breaking
waves in shoaling areas. It is not unusual for waves to break
much farther from shoaling areas than is normally experienced.
Remember, breaking waves can easily capsize even larger vessels.
