The winds and seas near thunderstorms may be higher than forecast. Deteriorating marine conditions are expected later today and into tonight as the next cold front approaches. Overnight showers will initially have the potential to create locally hazardous winds and seas. However, winds will increase areawide beginning after 1AM and will continue through Friday morning. Winds are forecast to reach 20 to 25 knots, with gusts to around 30 knots or higher. Seas will build in response to hazardous and even dangerous heights offshore. A Small Craft Advisory is in effect beginning early Thursday morning and continuing through Friday morning when winds and seas subside.
