Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A high pressure ridge prevails across the central
and eastern Gulf. Strong S return flow is developing in the
western Gulf and will persist through Mon, with winds
diminishing again by Mon night. Southerly winds will increase to
fresh across much of the Gulf Tue night and Wed ahead of a cold
front that is forecast to enter the western Gulf Wed night. The
front will extend from southeast Louisiana to Tampico, Mexico by
Thu morning. Fresh N winds are likely behind the front. The
Popocatepetl volcano in Mexico is in a state of unrest and it is
possible that ashfall from this volcano could limit visibilitiy
through tonight over the SW Gulf of Mexico from 19N to 20.5N
between 93.5W and 96.5W.
