Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends across the basin from 30N85W to
22N88W. A squall line precedes the front, extending from 30N83W
to 25N85W. A very tight gradient between strong high building
southward over the western Gulf and the cold front associated to
the low pressure is resulting in strong northerly winds over

cold front begins to weaken as it reaches the far southeastern
Gulf Tue. Another low pressure system will track

dragging a strong cold front across the western Gulf. This front
is expected to reach from near Apalachicola, Florida to the
eastern Bay of Campeche on Thu, and exit the Gulf on Fri. Gale
conditions will be possible behind this front off Veracruz on
Thu. Strong to near gale force southerly winds are possible
ahead of this front. Fresh to strong winds northeast winds will
be over the southeastern Gulf Sat.
