Hi Gang,

The North Pacific High is shoving a ridge into the Pacific Northwest and far Northern California. So our ocean winds turn a bit more NNW, the heat goes up, eddies form and for most locales the wind goes down.

The image below shows in red the temperature changes Friday and Sunday. Note how the hot air moves almost to the coast. This brings the inland low pressure over much to the region so the winds is highly localized near the coast and weaker more inland.

This video shows the North Pacific High forming that huge high pressure ridge:
