The front will reach from Apalachicola, FL to the central Bay of Campeche early Thu and from Sarasota, FL to the central Bay of Campeche Thu night before slowing down and beginning to weaken. A line of strong to severe thunderstorms is expected to accompany the front Wed over the NW Gulf, and Wed night into Thu across the north-central and NE Gulf of Mexico. Strong to locally near-gale force NNW to N winds are expected behind the front Wed in the western Gulf, diminishing to moderate to fresh northerly winds behind the front Wed night into Thu for the central and eastern Gulf.
