Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure ridging over the area will shift
eastward through tonight as a cold front approaches eastern
Texas. Fresh to locally strong SE return flow is expected in the
western and central Gulf through tonight as the cold front
approaches the NW Gulf. Seas will build in the area of strongest
winds. The front is expected to move over the NW Gulf Wed
morning, reach from Tampa Bay, Florida to the eastern Bay of
Campeche by Thu night, and from the Straits of Florida to the
northeastern Yucatan Peninsula by late Fri. The front is
expected to become stationary and weaken from the lower Straits
of Florida to the far south-central Gulf Sat and Sat night and
remain about in the same position through Sun night as a surface
trough forms along the Texas coast. A line of thunderstorms is
expected to accompany the front Wed and Wed night across the NW
and north-central Gulf. Strong N winds are expected behind the
front Wed in the western Gulf, diminishing to moderate to fresh
northerly winds behind the front later for the central and
eastern Gulf. Seas will build to a peak of about 9 ft in the NW
Gulf Wed, then shift to the NE Gulf late Wed night into early
Thu, before subsiding during the afternoon.
