Marine Weather Statement

Issued 3:50 PM PDT 19 April 2024 A ridge of high pressure will drive strong coastal outflow winds
tonight then ease Saturday morning.

An area of low pressure is forecast to approach Explorer overnight
tonight and lead to strong to gale force southeasterly winds
developing westwards of Vancouver Island on Saturday. Strong to gale
force winds will likely spread into central waters later Saturday as
the area of low pressure heads towards the northern tip of Vancouver
Island.

Gale force northwesterly winds are expected in the wake of this
system later on Saturday.
