WEATHER (6:00 AM, Nov 10): Increased cloudiness, shower activity during morning period, residents asked to be on alert

A surface to low-level trough is expected to result in an increase in cloudiness and shower activity during the morning period. People in areas at risk of flooding, landslides and falling rocks should be on alert and exercise caution. By afternoon, a high pressure system is expected to become the dominant feature across the region resulting in a relatively dry atmosphere with brief passing showers. Breezy conditions will persist throughout the period.

The presence of Saharan dust is expected to be maintained today in varing concentrations. Individuals with respiratory sensitivities should take the necessary precautions.

Seas will remain moderate during the next 24 hours, with wave heights up to 5 ft on the west coast and up to 8 ft in open water on the east coast. A Small Craft Advisory remains in effect for above-normal seas and gusty winds in open water, mainly on the east. Sea-bathers and small craft operators should continue to exercise extreme caution.
