Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Strong winds and rough seas follow a cold front
extending from the Florida Big Bend area near Crystal River to
near Coatzacoalcos, Mexico. Scattered thunderstorms are evident
ahead of the front over the southeastern Gulf. Wind will reach
gale force off Veracruz, Mexico overnight as the front extends
from southwest Florida to the northwest Yucatan Peninsula by
early Sun. Frequent gusts to gale force are possible behind the
front late Sun over the central Gulf. The front will move
southeast of the area by early Mon. High pressure building in
the wake of the front will allow winds and seas to diminish
across most the Gulf through Mon, although fresh to strong winds
over the western Gulf will persist and shift SE Mon night into
Tue. Looking ahead, winds and seas will continue to diminish
across the remainder of the basin through mid week.
