.SYNOPSIS FOR PASCAGOULA TO ATCHAFALAYA RIVER OUT 60 NM...
Benign conditions will continue through today as high pressure
remains overhead or at least nearby. Winds will be generally offshore
at 10 knots or less with seas under 2 feet. The only exception would
be the threat for brief gale force wind gusts and waterspouts from
increasing storm coverage associated with an approach weak area of
low pressure currently situated over the northeast Gulf. Increased
winds and seas are likely as this weak area of low pressure enters
the coastal waters on Thursday through Friday with wind gusts
exceeding 20 to 25 knots and seas as high as 5 to 7 feet in the open
Gulf waters. Seas and winds will weaken, but remain oriented onshore
(southwesterly) through the weekend.
