Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from near Morgan City,
Louisiana to just south of the mouth of the Rio Grande in
northeast Mexico. Gusty winds and locally rough seas are likely
today near numerous showers and thunderstorms active ahead of
the front over the north- central Gulf. The front will reach
from Tampa Bay, Florida to Tampico, Mexico early Mon, before
stalling and dissipating from the Straits of Florida to the
northeast Yucatan Peninsula through mid week. Fresh to strong N
to NE winds and building seas are likely behind the front over
much of the western and central Gulf Sun into early Mon. Looking
ahead, fresh to locally strong SE winds are likely over the
western Gulf Tue night into Wed, diminishing through Thu.
