Coastal Waters Forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends across the basin from 30N85W to
22N88W. A squall line precedes the front, extending from 30N83W
to 25N85W. A very tight gradient between strong high building
southward over the western Gulf and the cold front associated to
the low pressure is resulting in strong northerly winds over
over most of the basin. Winds will diminish through Tue as the
cold front begins to weaken as it reaches the far southeastern
Gulf Tue. Another low pressure system will track
east-northeastward across the NW Gulf on Wed and Wed night
dragging a strong cold front across the western Gulf. This front
is expected to reach from near Apalachicola, Florida to the
eastern Bay of Campeche on Thu, and exit the Gulf on Fri. Strong
to near gale force southerly winds are possible ahead of this 
front.
