Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A Gale Warning is in effect for all the Gulf waters
except the SE part. A strong cold front extends from the western
Florida panhandle to 25N92W and inland Mexico just south of
Tampico. The front will sweep across the rest of the Gulf by
earl this evening. Gale-force winds and very rough seas will
follow the front. High pressure in the wake of the front will
then shift eastward through Mon, allowing for fresh east to
southeast return flow to set up over the Gulf in advance of the
next cold front. This cold front is expected to enter the far NW
Gulf late Mon night, and reach from the western Florida
panhandle to the eastern Bay of Campeche by late Tue. Fresh
winds will precede and follow this front.
