Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front has moved off the Texas coast early
this morning. This front will race eastward today and tonight,
with scattered to numerous strong thunderstorms expected ahead
of it over the north-central and NE Gulf of Mexico. These
thunderstorms may bring locally hazardous winds and seas. Also
ahead of the cold front, areas of fog will prevail over the far
northern Gulf today. Behind the cold front, fresh to strong NW
to N winds are expected until the front moves SE of the area
Sun. A period of near gale force N winds is likely offshore
Veracruz, Mexico, night into Sun. In the wake of the front, high
pressure will build into the region, leading to quiescent
conditions later Mon through much of next week.
