000 FZNT27 KNHC 282044 OFFN06 NAVTEX Marine Forecast NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 344 PM EST Sun Feb 28 2021 ...Please refer to Coastal Waters Forecasts (CWF) available through NOAA Weather Radio and other means for detailed Coastal Waters Forecasts... .SYNOPSIS...High pressure ridging extending from the Atlantic to the central Gulf will slide east-southeast tonight into Mon as a cold front approaches the Texas coast. The front will move over the NW Gulf Mon afternoon. From Mon night through Tue afternoon a stationary front will be oriented E to W over the NE Gulf to weak low pressure near south-central Louisiana. The cold front will extend from the low southwestward to the SW Gulf at that time. Strong gale force north winds are expected over the far western Gulf south of 26N Mon night into Tue. The stationary front will transition to a warm front that lifts north of the Gulf late on Tue, and the cold front will weaken as it reaches the central Gulf Tue night into Wed, the southeastern Gulf during Wed and east of the Gulf late Wed night. In the wake of this front, high pressure will shift eastward across the northern and central Gulf Fri and Fri night as another low forms along a front that may possibly enter the NW and north-central Gulf areas.
