Synopsis

Surface high pressure over the Mid Mississippi Valley will slide south and ridge into the coastal waters for the remainder of the weekend. A moderate northeast flow is expected at times with wind speeds around 20 knots and a small craft advisory this morning west of Cameron. Winds will remain offshore Monday and Tuesday however decrease as high pressure settles over the region. No rain is expected into early next week as a dry air mass will be in place.

What this buoy measures

This buoy is not reporting waves. Conditions above come from the sensors it does carry, and the forecast, tides and sun times on this page are regional rather than measured at the buoy.
