.SYNOPSIS...
Light offshore flow will prevail through Today. Isolated to
scattered showers and thunderstorms will return by late tonight
as gulf moisture slowly moves northward. Precipitation chances
increase significantly Sunday through most of next week as
additional moisture from the Southern Gulf of Mexico advances
northward. East to southeast winds expected to increase near or
above 20 knots, along with increasing seas, beginning Monday, and
remain near this level for the remainder of the period. This
prolonged east to southeasterly fetch will likely cause increasing
tides, with minor coastal flooding possible. Small Craft
Advisories will likely be necessary during this time period.
