Gulf basin through early Sun as high pressure along the eastern
seaboard shifts E into the Atlc. Patchy fog is possible over the
far northwest and west-central Gulf by late Sat, ahead of a cold
front expected to move off the Texas coast late Sun. Behind the
front, NW winds will briefly increase to gale-force W of 95W on
Mon. The front is expected to reach from the mouth of the
Mississippi River to Veracruz on Mon morning and reach the SE
Gulf Mon night.
