.Synopsis for Lower Atchafalaya River LA to High Island TX out
60 NM including Sabine and Calcasieu Lakes and Vermilion and Cote
Blanche Bays...

Moderate onshore flow will give way to strong offshore flow as a
cold front moves offshore Sunday afternoon. Along the front heavy
rain and thunderstorms will reduce visibility with chaotic winds.
Behind the front winds will quickly pick up and a Small Craft
Advisory will be in effect through Monday afternoon for sustained
winds over 20 knots. Gusts between 25 and 30 knots can`t be ruled
out either. Combined seas will quickly rise with the winds peaking
at 5 feet in the outer coastal waters on Monday. By Monday night
winds and waves will both subside as the front washes out.
