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

Look for increasing southeast and building seas overnight and into
Monday. The next weather system will move into Southeast Texas
later today, with the tail end of some showers and isolated storms
toward the coast Monday night. Can not rule out an isolated strong
storm in the Galveston Bay area between about 10pm and 5am. Rain
chances start to taper off Tuesday depending on when a weak cold
front moves off the coast. A secondary, stronger push of cool dry
air will move into the waters late Tuesday night and early
Wednesday morning. North winds should increase to 20 to 25 knots
as this occurs along with building seas offshore. Small Craft
Advisories will be required. Onshore winds resume and increase
later in the week.
