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

A Small Craft Advisory is in effect through this evening. These
elevated northerly winds will also generate low water conditions
on area bays for today`s low tide cycle. The most severe low water
conditions are anticipated on upper portions of Galveston Bay and
Houston Ship Channel, where a low water advisory remains in
effect. Model guidance suggests this may even linger around
Manchester and Morgan`s Point into Tuesday`s low tide cycle, which
could potentially require an extension of the low water advisory
for another day.

Beyond today, less rough marine conditions should prevail for most
of the week ahead. Two periods to watch out for will be for a
stretch of elevated southerly to southwesterly winds Tuesday
night, and again this weekend when another cold front is expected
to arrive.
