GMZ500-GMZ501-170600- 1127 AM CST Sun Nov 16 2025 .SYNOPSIS FOR PASCAGOULA TO ATCHAFALAYA RIVER OUT 60 NM... Surface high pressure will generally remain east of the local area through most of the week. This will keep flow oriented onshore and fairly light through mid week. Late week, the pressure gradient will tighten as a surface low develops over West Texas and moves through the southern portion of the Central Plains. Onshore winds will strengthen in response to this. Guidance suggests at least 15-20 knots in open Gulf waters Thursday and Friday with seas 3-6 feet. Model consistency falls off a bit after that. The last few days they suggested a decent from coming in from the west to NW, now models are showing the upper low driving this will be opening and flattening out as it moves across the mid section of the country which will result in a much weaker cold front that lays over as it reaches the local coastal waters. $$ GMZ530-170600- Lake Pontchartrain and Lake Maurepas- 1127 AM CST Sun Nov 16 2025 .THIS AFTERNOON...West winds around 5 knots, becoming southwest around 5 knots late.
