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

Winds and seas decrease somewhat today into the early and midweek
time period. That said, recreational mariners are urged to use
extra caution today considering the increased holiday traffic.
During the second half of the week, moderate to occasionally
strong southeast winds and 4 to 6 foot seas resume with a long
fetch setting up across the Gulf. Showers and thunderstorm chances
return to the forecast late Tuesday night and Wednesday. Though
chances are better inland, we anticipate some disturbances passing
through this week that are difficult to time days in advance.
