Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure over the northeast Gulf will shift
east ahead of a cold front moving east through the Southern
Plains. This will allow fresh SE return flow over the northwest
Gulf to diminish through late Wed. The front will enter the
northern Gulf Thu, stall from southwest Florida to south Texas
Fri, before lifting back north as a warm front Sat ahead of yet
another cold front moving across Texas. The second front is
expected to move across the northwest Gulf, and reach from near
the western Florida panhandle to the SW Gulf Sun night. A warm
front will extend out ahead this front across the eastern gulf.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extending from just west of Bermuda to
the southern Bahamas will slow down as it reaches from near 
29N65W to 26N70W where it will become stationary to eastern Cuba
 by early Wed. The cold front portion will become stationary
during Wed, before the entire front dissipates early on Thu. The
frontal remnants will lift northward through Fri ahead of the
next cold  front. This next cold front will move off the
northeast Florida  coast late Thu, reach from Bermuda to south
Florida by late Fri,  before stalling from 25N65W to the Straits
of Florida by late Sat. The gradient will tighten between the
front and high pres that  builds eastward over the northern
portion on Sat night into Sun  allowing for east winds to
increase over much of the western  section of the area.
