Outflow winds in mainland inlets / David Patrick, meteorologist.: En57-44/80-007E-PDF
"In a marine forecast outflow winds are typically handled in a manner such as 'winds northeast 30 to 40 knots in mainland inlets' or 'winds northeast 30 to 40 notes in some mainland inlets'. The strength will depend mainly on the surface pressure gradient. It is common knowledge that winds do not blow with equal strength through all the inlets. An attempt is made here using a case from February 10, 1980 and a topography map to determine which inlets blow the strongest and under what conditions."
