 356 AM CDT Fri Apr 26 2024
 
 
 .SYNOPSIS...
 A tight pressure gradient between a series of lows over the
 Southern Plains and a high off the east coast will allow for a
 prolonged period of strong and gusty southerly winds. Sustained
 winds are likely to be near or above 20 knots through the weekend
 with gusts over 30 knots. This, along with building seas to as
 high as 10 feet offshore, will bring about a long duration small
 craft advisory through the weekend. The onshore winds will
 decrease early next week as the high weakens off the east coast
 and no deep surface lows are expected to form over the Southern
 Plains.
