.Synopsis for Lower Atchafalaya River LA to High Island TX out
60 NM including Sabine and Calcasieu Lakes and Vermilion and Cote
Blanche Bays...

High pressure centered over the northeastern gulf will ridge into
the coastal waters through the weekend into early next week. This
will keep mainly light onshore winds and low seas. Onshore flow will
increase somewhat by the middle part of next week as low pressure
forms over the Southern Plains. The next chance for any significant
shower activity will be Wednesday into Thursday ahead of an
approaching frontal boundary.
