Instructions:
A High Wind Watch for the coastal headlands and beaches means a hazardous high wind event is possible in areas along the immediate coast. Many of the headland areas and beaches are vulnerable to very strong wind gusts that may pose a safety hazard for individuals or high profile vehicles. The strong winds may also cause property damage. Sustained wind speeds of at least 40 mph or gusts of 58 mph or more are possible. Coastal headlands are characterized by high, rocky shores and steep sea cliffs.
