the waters through Wednesday before another strong surface low
enters the waters late Wednesday night. Seas build through the

Tuesday night. There is a chance for isolated thunderstorms across
the waters through Wednesday before another strong surface low
enters the waters late Wednesday night. Seas build through the
week and will be very hazardous to mariners with the potential for
wave heights in excess of 20 feet.
