GMZ500-GMZ501-040600- 1128 AM CST Tue Mar 3 2026 .SYNOPSIS FOR PASCAGOULA TO ATCHAFALAYA RIVER OUT 60 NM... The potential for sea fog to impact the coastal waters will remain in place through the week as a persistent southeast wind of 10 to 15 knots ushers in a much warmer and more humid airmass over the nearshore waters. Fog conditions are possible tonight, mainly over the western waters. This fog may turn dense at times and impact navigational operations. Outside of the fog concern, the lighter winds will keep seas in check at 4 feet or less. $$ GMZ530-040600- Lake Pontchartrain and Lake Maurepas- 1128 AM CST Tue Mar 3 2026 .THIS AFTERNOON...East winds 10 to 15 knots.
