Last night's front had cleared the entire western Gulf coast by midday with 
the exception of some scattered but relatively strong thunderstorms in the 
New Orleans area. The winds behind the front were brisk and the skies were 
clear but are expected to cloud over with the relatively high possibility 
of rain by Saturday. Some very light flights of migrants were approaching 
the coast in the lee of the front but tomorrow's rain, if it materializes, 
should bring about a good fallout by Saturday evening. Circum-Gulf migrants 
were being steered northeastward by the winds and thus were following the 
coastline.
