Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure over the western Atlantic combined
with lower pressures over Texas and Mexico will continue to
support fresh to locally strong E to SE winds across most of the
Gulf waters today. Winds will diminish a bit by late today
before a weak cold front moves into the NW Gulf late tonight.
The front will reach from SE Louisiana to Tampico, Mexico late
Thu before stalling. Another cold front will reach the NW Gulf
late Fri night, extend from SE Louisiana to near Veracruz,
Mexico on Sat, and from Tampa Bay to the eastern Bay of Campeche
on Sun. Fresh NW to N winds will follow this front across the
Gulf of Mexico, with strong winds in the SW Gulf. Dense marine
fog is expected within about 30 nm of the coast from Mobile,
Alabama to Brownsville, Texas through mid-morning.
