fresh to strong speeds over the western Gulf tonight into Sat
with seas building to 8 ft. Fresh to locally strong winds will
pulse near and to the NW of the Yucatan Peninsula each night
through Sat night. Then, winds are forecast to veer to the E
across most of the basin by late Sun into Mon as high pressure
settles over the northern Gulf. Slight to moderate seas will
prevail, reaching 7 or 8 ft in the NW Gulf through Sun under a
persisting SE wind flow.

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from 31N49W to 24N62W where it 
becomes stationary to the SE Bahamas and north-central Cuba. The 
front will remain nearly stationary on Sat and lift N on Sun 
while gradually dissipating. Moderate to locally fresh NE to E 
winds and moderate seas follow the front. High pressure building 
over the western Atlantic in the wake of the front will support 
the continuation of moderate to fresh E winds across the waters E 
of the Bahamas tonight into Sat. The high pressure will shift SE 
toward the NE corner of the forecast area on Sun diminishing the 
winds to gentle to moderate speeds. A cold front could reach the 
north waters late on Mon or Mon night.
