Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure ridging extending from the Atlantic to
the central Gulf will slide east-southeast tonight into Mon as a
cold front approaches the Texas coast. The front will move over
the NW Gulf Mon afternoon. From Mon night through Tue afternoon
a stationary front will be oriented E to W over the NE Gulf to
weak low pressure near south-central Louisiana. The cold front
will extend from the low southwestward to the SW Gulf at that
time. Strong gale force north winds are expected over the far
western Gulf south of 26N Mon night into Tue. The stationary
front will transition to a warm front that lifts north of the
Gulf late on Tue, and the cold front will weaken as it reaches
the central Gulf Tue night into Wed, the southeastern Gulf
during Wed and east of the Gulf late Wed night. In the wake of
this front, high pressure will shift eastward across the
northern and central Gulf Fri and Fri night as another low forms
along a front that may possibly enter the NW and north-central
Gulf areas.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure will continue to support fresh to
strong east winds across the waters south of 24N through Mon 
night. A cold front will move over the far northwest waters Mon 
night, then transition to a stationary front as its reaches from 
near 28N65W to 31N79W Tue night. Strong east winds will develop 
north of this boundary Tue and Tue night as strong high pressure 
to its north builds southward. The stationary front will lift back
to the north as a warm front in response to low pressure that 
will move northeastward from the Gulf of Mexico to off the coast 
of the Carolinas on Wed morning. The low pressure will strengthen 
as it quickly tracks northeastward through Thu night pushing a 
strong cold front across the waters north and northeast of the 
Bahamas. This front will be preceded and followed by fresh to 
strong winds and building seas. In its wake, high pressure will 
build over the area through Fri night.
