 .SYNOPSIS...Hazardous marine conditions will prevail along the
 Lower Texas Coast through mid-week courtesy of an enhanced
 pressure gradient and Tropical Storm Francine moving through the
 western Gulf of Mexico. Improved winds and seas are anticipated
 later in the week. Periods of heavy rainfall and strong gusty
 winds within the rainbands of Francine are possible. Marine
 conditions are expected to improve after Francine moves through
 the waters, however there will still be isolated to scattered
 showers and thunderstorms. Showers and thunderstorms can produce
 locally elevated winds and seas.
