.Synopsis For High Island to the Matagorda Ship Channel Out 60 NM
including Galveston and Matagorda Bays.
Winds are becoming somewhat variable this afternoon in advance of
a cold front expected to push off the coast early this evening.
Some scattered pockets of sea fog may briefly develop just before
the front passes. Strong northwest and north winds around gale
force with building seas are anticipated behind the front
overnight into Sunday morning. Low water conditions are also
anticipated in the bays late Saturday night and Sunday. Conditions
should slowly improve late Sunday into Monday as high pressure
moves overhead and then to the east. Heading into the early and
middle parts of next week, a long fetch of moderate east winds set
up across the Gulf which will cause building seas and above
normal tides.
