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

A lower threat of thunderstorms is expected through Saturday as a
drier area of high pressure moves in. The high will shift to the west
and a broad area of lower pressure will move in from the east for
early next week. This will allow winds to shift back to an onshore
flow and thunderstorm chances will increase. However, no significant
impacts to mariners are expected through the period outside of
locally higher winds and waves near any thunderstorms that form.
