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

Winds will shift out of the north behind a cold front today with
winds increasing to 10 to 15 knots later this afternoon and evening,
then to 15 to 25 knots overnight into Monday, mainly across the
Tidal Lakes and sounds, and much of the open gulf waters. A Small
Craft Advisory is now in effect for these areas through noon Monday.
It is highly cautioned that the eventual strength of the low will
determine the potential for stronger winds to persist beyond early
Tuesday, leading to the possibility of the Small Craft Advisory to
be extended in time, though confidence for now remains low. High
pressure settles in mid-week calming down winds and waves/seas
briefly, however, confidence is increasing that we`ll see another
system approach Gulf waters later in the week with another increase
in winds and seas.
