Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure ridging extending into the eastern
Gulf of Mexico from the western Atlantic will gradually shift
south through late Mon. Moderate to fresh winds southerly winds
will continue across most of the Gulf through late tonight,
except for fresh to strong SE winds in the western Gulf through
today. Fresh to strong winds will also pulse off the northwest
Yucatan peninsula during the evening hours through the period. A
weak cold front is forecast to enter the NW Gulf waters by early
Sat and move southeastward before dissipating Sat night.
Moderate to locally fresh return flow will then dominate the
basin through Mon. Another cold front is expected to enter the
NW Gulf late Mon night and move slowly southeastward. The front
should reach from northern Florida to NE Mexico by late Tue and
possibly reach from the southeastern Gulf to the central Gulf,
where it may stall with its western part lifting northward as a
warm front. Moderate to fresh NE to E winds will follow in
behind the front. Fresh east to southeast winds develop in the
NW Gulf Wed and Wed night.
