Synopsis
High pressure will continue to settle into the region today revealing light winds and wave/seas. Winds increase tonight into Monday morning reaching 8-10kts for protected waters, to 10-13kts for outer waters but will be a short-lived window as winds relax going into the daytime hours on Monday. Next notable window of impacts will be expected Thursday morning as a front sweeps across the region, introducing increasing northwesterly/offshore winds. At this time, winds will likely reach Small Craft Advisory during the daytime hours on Thursday, with sustained winds 18-28kts for Gulf waters and higher gusts near 30 knots. Waves/seas respond reaching 2- 3ft for protected waters, 3-4ft for nearshore Gulf zones and 4-7 ft for outer Gulf zones. Winds and wave/seas taper going into next weekend. KLG
