.SYNOPSIS...

Weak high pressure will ridge across the northern Gulf of Mexico
and provide mainly light onshore flow into this evening, while
scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms will also linger
before diminishing in coverage with sunset. High pressure ridging
across the northern Gulf and a series of low pressure systems
over the Plains will allow for modest southerly winds during next
week...and small craft should exercise caution if boating in
these conditions. Winds and seas will relax by late in the new
week as high pressure again becomes the dominant feature over the
western Gulf.
