Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Quiescent conditions will prevail through Mon as a 
surface ridge over the area begins to shift eastward. Fresh to 
locally strong SE return flow is expected in the western and 
central Gulf Mon night into Tue night as a cold front approaches 
the NW Gulf. Seas will build in the area of strongest winds. The 
front is expected to move over the NW Gulf Wed morning, reach from
southwest Florida to the NW Yucatan Peninsula by Thu night and 
from NW Cuba to the northeastern Yucatan Peninsula by late Fri. 
Fresh to strong N winds are expected behind the front Wed in the 
western Gulf, decreasing to moderate to fresh northerly winds 
behind the front later for the central and eastern Gulf. An area 
of scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms is currently 
affecting portions of the north-central and northeast Gulf in 
association with a weak stationary frontal boundary.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front from 19N55W to 17N63W will weaken as it
shifts east of the area by late tonight. Large long-period N to 
NE swell will continue to impact the Atlantic waters and Caribbean
Passages between the southeastern Bahamas and the eastern 
Caribbean, producing high seas into late Tue. Long-period NE to E 
swell is expected to continue affecting the Florida offshore 
waters north of 27N during the next few days. Hazardous marine 
conditions are likely, especially east of the Bahamas through late
Tue. Looking ahead, fresh to strong southerly winds are expected 
to develop offshore NE Florida beginning late Wed night as a 
strong cold front approaches the southeastern U.S. coast. The 
front is forecast to move off the coast late Thu, reach from near 
31N77W to South Florida early Fri, and from 31N71W to the central 
Bahamas and to central Cuba by late Fri night. The fresh to strong
southerly winds will shift eastward across the northern and 
central waters, while fresh to strong west to northwest winds 
follow in behind the front. Seas will build with these winds.
