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

Offshore flow has developed on this afternoon and will continue into
the early part of the weekend. Scattered showers and thunderstorms
will continue through the evening hours, but a lower threat of
thunderstorms is expected from Thursday through Saturday as a drier
area of high pressure moves in. The high will shift to the west and a
broad area of low pressure will move in from the east for early next
week. This will allow winds to shift back to an onshore flow and
thunderstorm chances will increase. However, no significant impacts
to mariners are expected through the period outside of locally higher
winds and waves near any thunderstorms that form.
