Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A stalled frontal boundary across the Yucatan
Channel and along the NW coast of Cuba will gradually lift
northward across the Straits of Florida and SE Gulf of Mexico
today through early Sun. Reinforcing high pressure will force
the front SE on Sun, with low pressure expected to develop along
the frontal boundary in the SW Gulf, then move ENE toward
Florida and the western Atlantic Mon. Gale conditions are
expected in the southwest Gulf Sun morning and then will shift
ENE across the central and SE portions with the low pressure
through Sun night. High pressure will rebuild across the region
behind the exiting low early next week. Another cold front will
enter the Gulf on Tue.

Bahamas this afternoon and evening and gradually merge tonight 
with a new reinforcing front moving across the NW waters. The 
merged front will briefly stall from 31N68W to NW Bahamas to 
Florida Keys Sun morning. Weak low pressure along the stalled
