.SYNOPSIS FOR PASCAGOULA TO ATCHAFALAYA RIVER OUT 60 NM...
A broad area of high pressure will keep conditions over the waters
relatively benign. Winds will be light at 10 knots or less and seas
will remain below 2 feet. The seabreeze cycle will lead to some
variability in wind direction near the coast, and a few
thunderstorms could fire up in relation to this seabreeze/landbreeze
cycle. Any storms will be short-lived and will produce locally gusty
winds and lightning. A weak cold front is still expected to slip
into the waters Tuesday night into Wednesday. Winds will turn
northeasterly and increase to 10 to 15 knots in the wake of this
weak front. Thunderstorm activity will be a bit more widespread as
the front moves through, and a few stronger storms with high wind
gusts could develop. By Thursday and Friday, the front will
dissipate and a return to a prevailing southeast wind is expected.
However, the pressure gradient over the northern Gulf will tighten
up as a low forms over the western Gulf and a broad high remains
centered over the Southeastern states. This will push winds into the
15 to 20 knot range by the end of the week and seas will increase to
3 to 5 feet.
