including Galveston and Matagorda Bays.

Surface high pressure in the vicinity will result in light winds
and a more distinct landbreeze/seabreeze circulation through
Tuesday followed by a more prevalent onshore flow as we head into
mid and late week. We might see another longer period swell arrive
at some point this weekend in association with Hurricane Beryl
that is forecast to move into the Bay of Campeche late Friday.
