gusty northwest winds into this evening will gradually ease
overnight as high pressure of 30.3 inches passes by just to the
south. southerly winds will then develop on thursday as the high
continues eastward, increasing thursday evening into thursday
night ahead of approaching low pressure. there is increasing
confidence in a round of gales during this period, with a gale
watch now in effect. the low of 29.3 inches will then pass by just
to the north friday morning, with winds becoming west to 
northwest during the day friday behind the low and an associated 
cold front. more periods of gusty winds will be possible the 
second half of the weekend into at least early next week, with 
more rounds of gale force winds not out of the question.
