Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extending from north Florida near
29N83W to the central Bay of Campeche will move across the Gulf
through this evening. NW to N winds to gale force and very rough
seas will follow the front over the southwest Gulf off the coast
of Veracruz this morning and persist through the remainder of
the day. Fresh to strong N winds and moderate to rough seas will
follow the front elsewhere through tonight. Winds and seas will
diminish from west to east across the Gulf through Sat night as
high pressure builds in the wake of the front. Looking ahead,
expect fresh to locally strong SE to S return flow across the W
Gulf on Mon and Tue.
