Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure will be in control of the weather
regime across the Gulf waters allowing for generally gentle to
moderate east to southeast winds and slight seas, except pulsing
to moderate to fresh offshore the western Yucatan Peninsula in
the evenings. Developing low pressure east of Florida will
tighten the pressure gradient over the NE Gulf bringing moderate
to locally fresh NE winds across the NE Gulf Thu night into Fri.
A frontal trough associated with the aforementioned low pressure
will move across the SE Gulf and the Straits of Florida Thu
night into Fri. 

.THIS AFTERNOON...E to SE winds 5 to 10 kt. Seas 2 ft or less.
Scattered showers and isolated tstms. 
.TONIGHT...NE to E winds 10 to 15 kt. Seas 2 ft or less.
Scattered showers and isolated tstms. 
.THU...NE winds 5 to 10 kt. Seas 2 ft or less. 
.THU NIGHT...NE winds 10 to 15 kt. Seas 2 ft or less. 
.FRI...NE winds 10 to 15 kt. Seas 2 ft or less, building to 3 ft
in the afternoon. 
.FRI NIGHT...NE to E winds 10 to 15 kt. Seas 2 ft or less,
building to 3 ft after midnight. 
.SAT...NE to E winds 5 to 10 kt. Seas 3 ft.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...Hurricane Nigel is located well N of area near 36.1N
54.4W at 11 AM EDT, and is moving north at 16 kt. Maximum 
sustained winds are 80 kt with gusts to 100 kt, and the minimum 
central pressure is 975 mb. Moderate to fresh winds and seas of
up to 11 ft prevail mainly N of 29N and E of 60W. These marine
conditions will move N of area by this evening. A stationary 
front extending from near 31N70W to east-central Florida will 
change little through Thu. The frontal boundary should begin to 
slowly lift northward on Fri as low pressure develops along it
to the east of northern Florida, where gale conditions and rough
seas are possible Thu night into Fri. This non-tropical area of 
low pressure could acquire some subtropical characteristics by 
this weekend while it moves generally northward. Regardless of 
development, this low is likely to bring gusty winds to gale 
force, heavy rain, and high surf to portions of the Southeast and 
Mid-Atlantic United States late this week and into this weekend.

.THIS AFTERNOON...E to SE winds 10 to 15 kt S of 27N, and E 10 to
15 kt N of 27N. Seas 3 ft. Scattered showers and isolated tstms. 
.TONIGHT...E winds 10 to 15 kt. Seas 3 to 4 ft. Scattered showers
and isolated tstms. 
.THU...S of 27N, E to SE winds less than 5 kt. N of 27N, E winds
5 to 10 kt, shifting to N 10 to 15 kt in the afternoon. Seas 3 to
5 ft. Scattered showers and isolated tstms. 
.THU NIGHT...S of 27N, NE winds 5 to 10 kt. N of 27N, N to NE
winds 20 to 25 kt, becoming N 10 to 15 kt after midnight. Seas
3 to 5 ft. Scattered showers and isolated tstms. 
.FRI...N winds 10 to 15 kt. Seas 3 to 5 ft.
