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

A backdoor front but will remain anchored over the coastal waters
for another 18-24 hours. By late this afternoon or early evening a
surface low will begin to slowly take shape in the northwestern Gulf
slowly drawing the front back to the north. As the surface low
deepens and moves northeast the pressure gradient will tighten and
onshore winds will increase to SCY criteria overnight and during the
day Sunday. Once the low moves to the north and then northeast of
the area Sunday afternoon a very strong cold front will quickly
surge through the area. Winds will quickly veer around to the
northwest Sunday evening and increase to sustained around 25-30 kts
with gusts approaching 40 kts. The tidal lakes will see the wind
increase first and could be flirting with Gales between 00 and 03z
Monday while the rest of the coastal waters will follow suit from
northwest to southeast. With that a Gale Watch has been issued for
all of the coastal waters from 00z Monday through 15z Monday. As
high pressure builds in Monday night into Tuesday, the northerly
winds will gradually decrease, but small craft advisory conditions
will persist.
