Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Patchy areas of dense marine fog will continue to be
possible within 20 nm of the U.S. northern Gulf Coast through
Sat morning. Surface high pressure will continue to be centered
over Florida during the next few days. A diurnal trough
developing over the Yucatan Peninsula during the late afternoons
will propagate westward over the Bay of Campeche each night
through Sun night. This pattern will lead to gentle to moderate
SE winds across the northern and NE Gulf, while moderate to
fresh SE winds will continue for the southern and SW Gulf, with
locally strong winds during the late afternoon and evening off
the NW coast of the Yucatan Peninsula. Looking ahead, a frontal
boundary across the Gulf States could cause moderate to fresh
southerly winds for the northern Gulf Mon before becoming gentle
to moderate on Tue.
