Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Strong high pressure is building over the area in
the wake of a strong cold front. The associated tight gradient
is allowing for NW near gale winds and seas of 12 to 20 ft in
the far SW Gulf. These winds are forecast to continue to
diminish today. Fresh to strong northeast winds and rough seas
will continue to affect the southeastern Gulf through Fri before
diminishing Sat. Frequent gusts to gale force are expected
across the Straits of Florida through early Fri. Conditions
further improve Sun into early next week as high pressure
settles over the region.
