Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A strong cold front extends from Fort Myers, Florida
SW to the central Bay of Campeche. Near gale to gale-force
northerly winds prevail behind the front with very rough seas,
except for minimal storm-force winds in the Veracruz offshore
waters. Storm-force winds will diminish back to gale-force as
the front stretches from the Florida Keys to the Yucatan by
this evening and then exit the basin tonight. Gale-force winds
will come to an end tonight for most of the Gulf with conditions
slowly improving through the weekend and into early next week.
However, gale-force winds will continue across the Veracruz
offshore waters through Sun night.
