Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Moderate to fresh return flow is expected across the
Gulf basin through early Sun as high pressure along the eastern
seaboard shifts E into the Atlc. Patchy fog is possible over the
far northwest and west-central Gulf by late Sat, ahead of a cold
front expected to move off the Texas coast late Sun. Behind the
front, NW winds will briefly increase to gale-force W of 95W on
Mon. The front is expected to reach from the mouth of the
Mississippi River to Veracruz on Mon morning and move SE of the
Gulf basin late Tue. High pressure will build across the basin
behind the front with quickly improving marine conditions.

.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong NW winds will prevail tonight across
 the west Atlantic N of 26N and E of 60W behind a frontal
boundary  currently extending from 20N55W SW through the central
Leeward  Islands. Rough to very rough seas in excess of 12 ft
will continue N of 26N and E of 65W through Sat before gradually

exit the SE U.S.  and N Florida Tue morning, reach from near
Bermuda to the NW  Bahamas by Tue evening, then drift SE and
