.Synopsis For High Island to the Matagorda Ship Channel Out 60 NM
including Galveston and Matagorda Bays.

A broad area of low pressure is forecast to form over the
southwestern Gulf of Mexico, bringing unsettled weather to the
Gulf waters through much of this week. Look for increasing winds,
seas, and water levels across the upper Texas coastal waters as
we head into the early and midweek time period. Small craft
advisories are likely and Gale Warnings cannot be ruled out in
the Gulf waters. Mariners should closely monitor the forecasts.
