 .SYNOPSIS FOR PASCAGOULA TO ATCHAFALAYA RIVER OUT 60 NM...
 
 A tight pressure gradient is in place between a weak wave over the
 central Gulf and high pressure over the southeastern states is
 leading to strong easterly winds with solidly sustained winds of
 20 to 25 knots over all of the coastal waters. Gusts above 30 knots
 are occurring and expected to occur over the next day or two. Seas
 are still climbing with the outer waters already around 7 feet.
 These hazardous conditions will continue through Friday before
 finally seeing winds start to veer around to more southeasterly and
 then southerly this weekend as that tropical wave moves towards the
 Louisiana coast Friday and inland on Saturday. Going into this
 weekend some improvement takes place, but winds and seas will remain
 moderate. We will see an increase in storms Friday and Saturday,
 especially east of the Mississippi River Delta and that will lead to
 locally higher winds and seas.
