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

For the next few days conditions will remain rather benign, outside
of thunderstorms, as high pressure dominates the area. Late in the
weekend and early next week we may begin to see moderate onshore
winds as high pressure slides to the eastern Gulf and Tropical Storm
Beryl approaches the Texas coast, possibly regaining hurricane
strength. Shower and thunderstorm coverage will remain highest
during the morning hours. Locally higher winds and seas will occur
with any thunderstorms, and waterspouts are expected.
