Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A weak surface trough in the central Gulf will
linger through the end of the week. A cold front is expected to
move off the Texas coast into the northwest Gulf late tonight
and early Fri morning. The front will reach from the Sabine Pass
to near Tampico, Mexico by late Sat, then stall from near Panama
City, Florida to about 90 nm off the mouth of the Rio Grande,
then southward to Veracruz, Mexico. Fresh to strong northerly
winds will follow the front over the western Gulf along the
coast of Mexico through early next week. Looking ahead, a
strengthening ridge over the SE United States may force fresh to
strong NE winds and building seas over the E Gulf early next
week.
