Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A subtropical ridge over the western Atlantic will
continue to exert its influence across the Gulf waters over the
next few days. Moderate to occasionally fresh SE winds are 
forecast over the majority of the basin through Fri. Fresh to 
locally strong winds will pulse near and to the NW of the Yucatan
Peninsula each night and early morning hours due to local 
effects. A weak cold front will enter the NW Gulf waters Fri and 
slide eastward. A stronger cold front will move across the area 
late this weekend into early next week, resulting in an increase 
in winds and seas behind the boundary.
