Abstract A primitive equation model is formulated and integrated numerically to study the sea breeze. The formulation is an extension of an atmospheric boundary‐layer model previously developed for a homogeneous terrain. External gravity‐wave type solutions are suppressed by a modelling assumption involving the equation of continuity. The results of an integration showing the evolution of the sea breeze under conditions of no large‐scale synoptic motion are presented.
