Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure ridging over the northern Gulf of
Mexico will move eastward over the next few days. Southerly
return flow will increase to fresh to locally strong tonight
into early Tue over the western Gulf, with fresh winds spreading
to the remainder of the Gulf Tue. Strong winds will also develop
off NW Cuba and the NW Yucatan Tue night into early Wed. A cold
front will enter the western Gulf on Wed with strong N winds
likely behind it over the far west-central Gulf, and quickly
diminishing as the front reaches the central Gulf early Thu,
before stalling and weakening. A stronger cold front will enter
the Gulf Thu evening, reach from the Florida Big Bend to
Veracruz Fri morning, and exit the basin to the southeast by
early Sat. Gale force NW to N winds are possible behind the
front over the SW Gulf Fri into Fri night.
