GMZ500-GMZ501-280915- 339 PM CDT Sat Apr 27 2024 .SYNOPSIS FOR PASCAGOULA TO ATCHAFALAYA RIVER OUT 60 NM... High pressure well to our northeast and a deepening surface low along the lee side of the Rockies is helping build winds across the local waters. A surface low will develop today and deepen as it moves across the Plains and into the upper Mississippi Valley on Sunday. Additionally, the high over the western portions of the Atlantic will slide south and become centered east of the Carolinas. This should maintain or even strengthen the gradient across the area leading to additional strong southerly winds. This will keep Small Craft Advisory conditions in place through Sunday night. Also, the persistent southerly flow will produce a large fetch across the Gulf with seas likely higher than typical as long swell develops. $$ GMZ530-280915- Lake Pontchartrain and Lake Maurepas- 339 PM CDT Sat Apr 27 2024 ...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY IN EFFECT THROUGH MONDAY MORNING... .TONIGHT...Southeast winds 20 to 25 knots with gusts up to 30 knots.
