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

High pressure off the Atlantic Coast and low pressure over the
southern Gulf will tighten the pressure gradient again over the
coastal waters. Small Craft Exercise Caution headlines will be in
effect during the day and tomorrow for northeasterly winds 15 to
20 knots. A frontal boundary moving into the waters tonight and
Thursday may necessitate a Small Craft Advisory for at least part of
the waters Thursday and especially Friday. Some improvement in wind
and wave conditions could occur on Saturday over the protected
waters, but perhaps not until Sunday over the outer waters.
