.SYNOPSIS...
Moderate northerly breezes will clock around easterly by late
Saturday morning, then decrease later Saturday as a high pressure
ridge sharpens over the waters. Late on Sunday, the southern
periphery of strong high pressure will bridge south across the
waters. This will freshen northeasterly and easterly flow on
Sunday night and Monday, and a Small Craft Advisory may eventually
be needed. On Tuesday, an east- west ridge of high pressure will
elongate along the northern Gulf Coast, bringing gentle easterly
breezes through Wednesday to its south.
