.SYNOPSIS FOR PASCAGOULA TO ATCHAFALAYA RIVER OUT 60 NM...
High pressure will begin to break down over the Gulf as a weak
backdoor cold front moves into the coastal waters overnight. Outside
of any thunderstorms activity winds will remain light through
tonight as the front approaches with winds around 10 knots or less
and seas will remain below 2 feet. However an outflow boundary
currently moving across the coastal waters from east to west will
likely continue to spark additional showers and thunderstorms which
will lead to locally higher winds and seas with winds possibly
approaching 35-40 kts through this morning. That backdoor cold front
will drift across the coastal waters tonight and early Wednesday.
After it moves through winds will shift to easterly and will
increase in speed, especially the waters east of the MS Delta where
solid SCY conditions are expected Wednesday. The front will stall
and washout by Thursday and as high pressure builds over the
southern Appalachians the pressure gradient will increase leading to
moderate onshore flow returning. Small Craft Advisory expected for
Wednesday and may be needed later this week.
