Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A trough extending from the northwest Yucatan
Peninsula to near 27N94W will move slowly westward across the
southwestern Gulf of Mexico during the next few days before it
reaches the northeast coast of Mexico Sat. Elsewhere, relatively
weak high pressure centered over the northeast Gulf will be
reinforced by stronger high pressure that builds south-
southwestward from the western Atlantic Fri through early next
week. The resultant gradient will increase winds to fresh speeds
over the NE Gulf beginning late Sun.
