Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Near gale-force S to SE winds and rough seas across
the north-central and northeast Gulf will quickly diminish
today, ahead of a cold front moving across the NW Gulf. The
front will move southeastward and briefly stall from the Florida
Panhandle to western Bay of Campeche this evening through Wed,
then will move southeast again and exit the Gulf by early Thu
evening. Expect fresh to strong northerly winds and building
seas over mainly the south-central and southeast Gulf behind the
front Thu and Fri, as high pressure builds across the basin and
low pressure deepens off the Carolinas. Winds and seas will
diminish again across the Gulf into Sat as the high pressure
moves eastward across the northern Gulf.
