Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from N central Florida to
28N89W and to 27N93W, where it becomes a warm front to a weak
1016 mb low over the NW Gulf near 27N96W. A stationary front
then trails from the low to 23N96W to 20N97W. The cold front
will sweep across the eastern and central Gulf waters today and
and become a stationary front over the SE Gulf on Mon. The low
will slowly move northeastward through Mon night, then
east-northeastward across the north-central waters through Thu
night and the NE Gulf by Fri, dragging a new cold front across
the SW Gulf. The pressure gradient between the low and high
pressure building over the southeastern United States will
support fresh to strong north to northeast winds and building
seas over the northern Gulf today before diminishing Mon. Fresh
to strong northerly winds are also expected over the western
Gulf behind the cold front. On Mon, fresh to strong north to
northeast winds over the NW Gulf will lowly diminish through
Thu. 

.THIS AFTERNOON...NE to E winds 10 to 15 kt. Seas 3 to 5 ft.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...A strong cold front extending from 31N75W to  inland
central Florida near Cape Canaveral will reach from near 
Bermuda to S Florida tonight, and from near 28N65W to the
Florida Keys by Mon evening, then become stationary. Fresh to
strong  winds and building seas are expected behind this front
through  late Mon as strong high pressures slides eastward off
the U.S.  east coast. The high pressure and front will weaken
Tue through  early Thu allowing for winds to diminish and seas
to subside. On  Thu, the pressure gradient is forecast to
tighten east of NE  Florida between high pressure to the N
across the eastern seaboard and possible low pressure developing
N of the NW Bahamas.
