Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extending from SE Louisiana to the
offshore waters south of Tampico, Mexico will reach from
Apalachicola, FL to the central Bay of Campeche early Thu and
from near Sarasota, FL to the central Bay of Campeche Thu night
before slowing down and beginning to weaken. Fresh to strong NW 
to N winds west of the front will diminish to moderate to fresh 
speeds overnight into Thu for the central and eastern Gulf. Fresh 
to strong southerly winds ahead of the front will diminish Thu as 
the front approaches Fl. The front should become stationary Fri 
night from the Straits of Florida to the south-central Gulf of 
Mexico before weakening further and should remain in about the 
same position through Sat as a surface trough forms over the SW 
Gulf. The trough will transition to a warm front on Sun and lift 
northward to the NW Gulf by late Mon.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...Large long-period N to NE swell will continue to 
affect much of the area for the next couple of days. A large and
powerful low pressure system north of the area will bring strong 
to near gale force W winds and very large seas tonight through Thu
night to the waters E of 65W and north of 27N. Fresh to strong 
southerly winds are offshore NE Florida associated with a strong 
cold front that approaches the SE U.S. coast. The front will move

merged front is forecast to reach from near 29N55W to 26N66W and 
then stall to the central Bahamas by late Mon. Fresh to strong 
southerly winds will shift eastward across the northern and 
central waters through Sat and exit the area late Sat. Fresh 
northwest to north winds will follow in behind the merged front.
