Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A surface ridge dominates the Gulf waters producing
gentle to moderate E to SE winds. The pressure gradient between
the ridge and lower pressures in Texas and Mexico will support
fresh to strong pulsing winds in the western half of the Gulf
tonight into the weekend. Moderate or weaker winds will prevail
in the eastern half of the basin. Winds will pulse to strong
speeds nightly near and to the NW of the Yucatan Peninsula due
to local effects induced by a thermal trough.

Bermuda and the Bahamas dominates the western Atlantic. Fresh NW
winds and seas to 8 ft are affecting the waters N of 28N and E

weakening cold front moves E away from the area. Moderate to 
fresh easterly winds will continue over the waters S of 22N and
W of 60W through today, including in the approaches of the 
Windward Passage. The high pressure will move eastward while 
slowly weakening. A surface trough may develop just N of 
Hispaniola over the next 48 hours and move east toward the
waters just north of Puerto Rico by the end of the work week.
