COAST GUARD ENCOURAGES PUGET SOUND MARINERS

AND WATERFRONT FACILITIES TO PREPARE FOR HIGH WINDS

SEATTLE - The Coast Guard encourages all Puget Sound mariners and
waterfront facility owners to prepare for high winds Friday evening
through Saturday morning as the strongest cold front of the year moves
through the coastal areas and the Puget Sound.

The National Weather Service has issued storm and gale warnings for
Oregon and Washington coastal areas, and predict winds along the coasts
to reach up to 40 mph, with exposed areas seeing wind gusts up to 60
mph.


That's nothing more than a brisk winter breeze here in New England.
