Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong easterly winds and rough seas in the
wake of a front, currently located just SE of area, will
continue to gradually diminish tonight. High pressure will
dominate the Gulf waters through Wed. A low pressure is forecast
to develop over the NW Gulf near the Texas coast late on Thu,
then track northeast toward the state of Georgia by Fri night
pushing a cold front across the basin. This next frontal system
will bring increasing winds and seas across the Gulf waters, as
well as widespread showers and thunderstorms.
