GMZ500-GMZ501-201300- 701 PM CDT Tue Aug 19 2025 .SYNOPSIS FOR PASCAGOULA TO ATCHAFALAYA RIVER OUT 60 NM... Hurricane Erin in the Atlantic is help a weak boundary/front slide toward the Gulf coast over the next few days. This will generally keep winds on the weaker side but will also aid in daily showers and thunderstorms. Most of the activity will be typical for this time of the year with the majority of the storms occuring during the overnight and early morning hours the next few days. By Thursday storms may be a little more numerous and impact the coastal waters through much of the day and night as that front stalls right along the coast. With storms stronger winds and higher seas should be expected. Outside winds will generally be less than 10 kts and seas 2 ft or lower will occur. $$ GMZ530-201300- Lake Pontchartrain and Lake Maurepas- 701 PM CDT Tue Aug 19 2025 .TONIGHT...Southwest winds around 5 knots, becoming northwest around 5 knots after midnight.
