Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to locally strong NE winds prevail over
portions of the SE and SW Gulf in the wake of a cold front that
moved out of the basin today during the afternoon hours. These
winds will continue to diminish tonight as the front continues
to move away of the region. Elsewhere winds and seas associated
with the front will diminish through Sun. Surface high pressure
and associated ridging will develop across the gulf on Sun
providing mainly light to gentle variable winds basin-wide
through Mon night. Moderate to fresh SE winds will develop
across the western half of the gulf on Tue ahead of the next
frontal system, becoming strong Tue night through Wed.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...Surface ridging associated with a 1026 mb high
centered near 29N55W extends SW across the Bahamas. A cold front
extends across the W Atlantic from 31N63W to Andros Island and
Western Cuba and is moving SE. Fresh to strong trade winds will 
prevail S of 21N through early Mon as the high drifts NE and 
weakens. Fresh to strong NE winds will prevail behind the front,
then gradually veer to the E and diminish through Sun evening as 
the front reaches from 30N55W to just N of the NW Bahamas, and 
then stalls. The next cold front is forecast to emerge from NE 
Florida on Mon morning and lift N of the area Mon night while a 
new center of high pressure forms to the E of the northern 
Bahamas. Moderate to fresh SW to W winds associated with the front
will affect the northern offshore waters through early Wed.
