Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A strong cold front extends from southwestern
Lousiana to inland Texas near Brownsville. The front will reach 
the southeastern Gulf waters Wed and the Straits of Florida by 
Wed evening. In the wake of the front, strong northerly winds 
are expected in the western half of the basin, with gale force 
winds expected west of 95W on Tue. A secondary front will drop 
southward to the northern Gulf early on Fri and reach the far 
southwestern Gulf by Fri evening. Strong high pressure will 
build in behind this front. The pressure gradient between the 
front and broad low pressure that is expected to form over the 
western Caribbean by the end of the week is expected to freshen 
the northeast winds over most of the southeastern Gulf by the 
end of the week. These winds may reach strong speeds on Sat and 
Sat night along with building seas.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...Weak high pressure over the western Atlantic is
maintaining generally gentle to moderate winds across the area.
The high pressure will begin retreat eastward through Wed in 
response to a cold front that will be moving across the 
southeastern U.S. This cold front will reach the southeastern 
U.S. coast Tue night and move over the northwest part of the
area through Wed. The front will begin to weaken as it reaches
from near 31N74W to South Florida by Wed night and become
stationary from 31N73W to the Straits of Florida by late Thu
through Fri night, then diffuse Sat. Scattered showers and 
thunderstorms are expected ahead of the cold front.
