.Synopsis For High Island to the Matagorda Ship Channel Out 60 NM
including Galveston and Matagorda Bays.
Scattered shower activity is expected to continue intermittently
through Saturday morning. Light onshore winds develop late
Saturday into Sunday morning before a dry cold front brings
offshore flow to the region on Sunday. Patchy sea fog cannot be
ruled out ahead of the front. Northerly winds will increase in the
front's wake, likely warranting Small Craft Advisories by Sunday
night. Occasional gusts to gale force cannot be ruled out offshore
in the open Gulf.
