Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extending from near the Florida Big
Bend to 1017 mb low pressure in the west-central Gulf near
23N95W to the Bay of Campeche near 18.5N95W will slowly shift
east-southeast, extending from near Tampa Bay Florida to the 
eastern Bay of Campeche Thu afternoon, exiting the Gulf by early 
Fri. A squall line ahead of the front, mainly N of 25N, will 
result in hazardous conditions. Moderate to locally fresh winds 
are forecast in the wake of the front. Return flow around high 
pressure over the SE U.S. will dominate this weekend, weakening 
by Sun night as the next front potentially moves into the 
northern Gulf while weakening. Fairly tranquil conditions are 
forecast Mon.
