.SYNOPSIS...

...Small craft should exercise caution through early this evening

over the open Gulf waters and the southern portions of Mobile

Bay...



Moderate to at times strong southerly to southwesterly flow is

expected through late this afternoon. This will result in

increased seas through today. Numerous showers and thunderstorms

are expected today, especially during the morning hours. Winds

will remain southerly to southwesterly through Saturday but will

gradually diminish in intensity along with improving seas. Light

southwesterly winds can be expected Sunday as high pressure

settles over the marine waters. Winds will again begin to

increase back to moderate westerly early next week. Winds and

waves will be higher in any thunderstorms. /JLH
