Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front currently entering the NW Gulf will
extend from SE Louisiana to Brownsville, Texas this morning, and
from the Florida Big Bend to near Veracruz, Mexico by tonight. A
weak low pressure is then forecast to develop along the frontal
boundary over the central Gulf on Fri. The low will move across
Florida into the western Atlantic probably late Sat into Sat
night dragging the cold front across the SE Gulf. Strong
northerly winds and building seas are expected in the wake of
the front over the western Gulf. Gale conditions are forecast
over the west-central Gulf, including the Tampico area today and
tonight. Gale force winds are also expected over SW Gulf,
including the Veracruz region tonight and Fri. Building seas of
10-14 ft are expected with the strongest winds.
