1/3 of the waves...along with the occasional height of the average
highest 10 percent of the waves.

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

The main marine concern during at least the first half of the
forecast period will be the increasing threat for thunderstorms that
could produce locally higher winds and seas. Maybe not much today,
but more certainly Friday into Saturday. Forecast confidence is a
bit lower by late in the weekend, with an approaching cold front.
The current wind forecast would indicate generally offshore flow by
late Sunday afternoon for most or all of the waters. If the front
makes it well into the Gulf early next week, that may justify Small
Craft Exercise Caution headlines by Monday or Tuesday.
