A weakening low pressure system will move east along the northeast Gulf Coast and dissipate tonight...allowing seas and moderate onshore winds to gradually subside. Winds will become west tonight with rain ending and then offshore by early Monday. Then...a Continental high pressure ridge will settle over the marine area through mid week...with offshore winds persisting. Winds and seas will likely increase Thursday as higher pressure builds to the north pushing a reinforcing cold front south into the northern Gulf region.
