GMZ001-132100- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 352 AM EST Sat Jan 13 2024 .SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from Cedar Key, Florida to the eastern Bay of Campeche. It will push further southeastward this morning, and fresh to strong northerly winds along with rough seas will persist behind this front across the central and eastern Gulf. Afterward, it is expected to stall from the Florida Straits to the Yucatan Channel this afternoon through Sun, which will cause a period of fresh to strong NE winds just north of the Yucatan Peninsula and Channel on Sun. Winds and seas across the Gulf will finally diminish by Sun evening as high pressure builds over the northern Gulf. Looking ahead, another front may enter the northwestern Gulf by late Mon, and exit southeast of the Gulf by late Wed night. Fresh to strong northerly winds and building seas will follow this second front, with winds possibly reaching gale force over the west-central and southwestern Gulf Tue and Tue night. $$ GMZ040-132100- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 352 AM EST Sat Jan 13 2024 .TODAY...E winds 10 to 15 kt.
