Tampico Mexico. Strong to near gale-force winds will follow the
front, elsewhere. The front will push south as a cold front on
Monday, and become stationary for a second time, across the
lower Straits of Florida, or across northern Cuba and west
southwestward to the northern and western sections of the
Yucatan Peninsula through Tuesday night. A surface trough will
