.SYNOPSIS FOR PASCAGOULA TO ATCHAFALAYA RIVER OUT 60 NM...

A stationary front will eventually move southeastward as a cold
front today. Thundertorms along this boundary will bring the threat
of locally strong winds, large hail, and higher seas to the waters.
Southwesterly winds south of the front will subside and shift out of
the northwest in wake of the cold frontal passage this afternoon.
High pressure builds in Sunday and remains over the waters through
much of next week.
