Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A 1008 mb low pressure currently near 25N90W will
continue to strengthen as it moves ENE this evening and into
Florida near the Big Bend overnight. This will produce
additional gales in the NE Gulf tonight. Thunderstorms in
association with this low will provide locally higher winds and
seas into Sun morning over the eastern Gulf of Mexico. NW gales
will present behind the low Sun in the NE Gulf of Mexico. A cold
front will trail from the low, moving SE of the Gulf morning.
Strong north winds will continue behind this front in the
northern and western Gulf into Sun. High pressure will then
settle in over the area through early next week allowing for
marine conditions to improve.
