Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front currently reaching from southwest
Louisiana to near the mouth of the Rio Grande will stall over
the northern and eastern Gulf through Mon and dissipate early
Tue. Light to gentle variable winds will dominate the basin
afterward through Thu morning when a strong cold front is
forecast to emerge off the coast of Texas. Fresh southerly flow
will return to the Texas coast Wed into Thu ahead of this front,
and strong NW winds and building seas will follow the front over
the northwest Gulf Thu night. Looking ahead, the front will
reach from near Tampa Bay, Florida to Veracruz, Mexico by early
Fri. Winds to gale force and rough seas are possible off
Veracruz Fri behind the front, with fresh to strong northerly
winds elsewhere. Winds and seas will diminish into Sat as the
front moves southeast of the area.
