The CNMI Homeland Security and Emergency Management issued a small craft advisory yesterday, warning that winds of 15 to 25 knots and combined seas of 9 to 11 feet are expected to produce hazardous conditions for operators of small craft until Friday.

The small craft advisory is now in effect until 6 pm Friday, when seas are expected to decrease.

Inexperienced mariners, especially those operating smaller vessels, should avoid boating in these conditions. If travel by boat is necessary, exercise caution especially near reef lines and when entering or leaving harbors and inlets.
