Coastal Waters Forecasts...

Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A ridge will continue to dominate the Gulf waters
through Wed night. Expect southerly winds, gentle to moderate
for the eastern Gulf, and moderate to occasional fresh over the
western Gulf. This moist southerly flow will continue to favor
the development of marine fog across the northern Gulf during
night and early morning hours. Fresh to locally strong winds
will pulse each night into the early morning hours near and
northwest of the Yucatan Peninsula due to a thermal trough.
Southerly flow will increase and reach fresh to strong by Thu
ahead of a cold front forecast to move eastward across the Gulf
on Fri. These winds could reach near-gale force across the
northern Gulf.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...Rough seas will persist east of 63W through Thu.  A
cold front will move off the east coast of the United States 
today, with fresh to strong westerly winds and building seas to 
the waters off northeast Florida. This boundary will also
produce strong to near-gale westerly winds and higher seas north
of 28N  across the western Atlantic waters through Wed. Another
cold  front is forecast to exit the U.S. southeast coast on Fri,
 bringing another round of increasing winds and seas off Florida
 and near northwest Bahamas.
