.SYNOPSIS FOR HIGH ISLAND TO MATAGORDA SHIP CHANNEL OUT 60 NM...
Moderate onshore winds will gradually diminish the next couple
days as surface high pressure builds in from the east and the
pressure gradient relaxes. A surface trough will makes its way
east to west across the waters this weekend. Expect winds to back
to the northeast in advance along with increasing chances of
showers and thunderstorms as this occurs. As the trough passes,
southeast winds will resume as we head into early next week.
