Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extending from south-central Louisiana
to northeastern Mexico will stall over the northern and eastern
Gulf Mon through early Tue, and lift NE as a warm front later
during Tue and through Wed night. 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.
