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

Marine conditions will be benign through the period outside of any
localized impacts from convection. Light offshore flow will
persist through the remainder of today, but will become more
erratic tonight and then shift to a more onshore direction through
the work week. Expect convective coverage to increase through the
work week as moisture and instability increase across the region.
This convection should follow a typical diurnal pattern, with a
daily maximum across the coastal waters during the late night and
morning hours, and minimum during the afternoon and evening
hours.
