.SYNOPSIS FOR PASCAGOULA TO ATCHAFALAYA RIVER OUT 60 NM...

Southeasterly winds on the southwest flank of surface high pressure
in the Mid-Atlantic will continue to pivot to southwesterly through
the day Friday and into Saturday. We`ll also see scattered showers
and a couple isolated, weak storms along the coast primarily during
the morning to afternoon hours on Friday due to the return flow of
moisture, then diminishing towards sunset. By Sunday, a strong cold
front swings through marine waters introducing strong
offshore/northerly flow with gusts in excess of 25-35 knots,
especially for Gulf waters, and waves/seas responding to around 7-
10ft for 20-60nm zones. Small Craft Advisory and the potential for
Gale conditions remain possible, primarily late Sunday through early
Tuesday. By midweek, high pressure settles into the region allowing
for winds and wave/seas to relax.
