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

High pressure has allowed east to southeast winds to relax a bit to
between 10 and 15 knots. Seas have also decreased to 2 to 4 feet.
This brief respite in rougher conditions will end by Wednesday night
as a low in the southern Gulf develops and gradually pushes to the
west. Northeasterly winds will increase to near advisory levels in
the offshore waters and seas will increase to 4 to 6 feet from
Wednesday night through Friday and perhaps beyond. As for tidal
lakes and nearshore waters, cautionary headlines are likely, but
cannot rule out the need for Small Craft Advisories by Thursday or
Friday.
