.SYNOPSIS...A 1008 mb extratropical low is in the east-central
Gulf, accompanied by gales, particularly within about 120 nm of
the center in the N semicircle. This low will track NE and move
inland into Florida by midday, ending gales for the NE Gulf of
Mexico. Showers and some strong thunderstorms will accompany the
low and its trailing cold front across the far eastern Gulf of
Mexico, before the front moves SE of the area this evening.
Fresh to strong winds and seas of 8 to 10 ft behind the front
will gradually subside Wed. High pressure crossing the northern
Gulf will lead to tranquil conditions Wed night through Thu, but
by Fri and into the weekend, fresh to possibly locally strong
return S flow will develop in the western Gulf.
