.SYNOPSIS...A weak 1011 mb low is along a stationary front over
the NE Gulf of Mexico from the Florida Big Bend to 25N90W. The
stationary front will weaken tonight. Winds will begin to
increase over the western Gulf this evening as a tightening
surface trough forms into low pressure. A cold front will form
tonight and extend southward from the low pressure. By Mon
afternoon, the low pressure will be south of Mobile, AL, and the
cold front will extend from there to south of Veracruz Mexico.
The front will reach from Sarasota Florida to Cancun Mexico by
early Tue, then dissipate Tue night. Gale force northerly winds
are expected in the northwestern and west-central Gulf late
tonight through Monday afternoon to the west of the low pressure
and behind the front. A wintry mix of precipitation is likely
along the coastlines of Texas and Louisiana tonight and Mon
morning. Winds and seas will diminish across the region by early
Tue. The next cold front will enter the western Gulf late Wed,
then exit east of the basin by Fri afternoon. Strong to near
gale force winds are likely to precede and follow this front
across the basin, with gale force winds possible off Veracruz
Thu.
