Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure centered near the mouth of the
Mississippi extends a ridge SE to the Straits of Florida. The
high pressure will track northeastward and inland today, then
move east off the Georgia coast Mon evening with the ridge
extending W-SW across the N gulf waters through Thu. A weak
surface trough will move W off SW Florida tonight and across the
eastern gulf Mon, followed by moderate to locally fresh E to SE
winds through Tue as it becomes diffuse over the north- central
gulf. Fresh to strong NE to E winds will develop over the far SE
gulf and Straits of Florida beginning Tue, and continue through
early Thu as strong high pressure builds southeastward over the
western Atlantic.

.SYNOPSIS...A weakening front has become nearly stationary from 
31N67W SW to central Cuba near 21N78W. southwest to to 27N73W 
and becomes a weakening stationary front to central Cuba. The 
cold front will move slowly SE Mon and reach from just E of 
Bermuda to W central Cuba by early Mon afternoon. A new cold 
front across the NW waters from 31N76W to near Melbourne Florida
will move quickly SE tonight and Mon before it merges with 
preceding front Mon night from near 28N65W to west-central Cuba.
 Mon night. It will then become stationary from near 27N65W to 
west- central Cuba by early Wed. Strong high pressure will slide
 eastward near 31N Mon night through early Thu, resulting in a 
tight pressure gradient N of the front that will bring fresh to 
strong NE to E winds to much of the central and SW waters. The 
high should weaken enough on Fri to allow for these winds to 
diminish. A broad surface trough will approach 65W Thu and 70W 
Fri. It is expected to be followed by fresh to locally strong E 
to SE winds, and active weather.
