Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida .SYNOPSIS...Winds to minimal gale force persist northeast of the 1007 mb low pressure that is the remnant low of Oscar centered east of the central Bahamas near 26N68W. The low pressure is part of a bigger trough that reaches toward Bermuda. The low will continue to develop into a large gale center that will move to the west of Bermuda by late today and farther into the north central Atlantic Thu. This will pull in slightly cooler and drier air on the west side of the low, forming a cold front that will extend from the low pressure through the Bahamas this afternoon, then sweep to the east of region by Sat. Gale force winds will shift north of 31N today, and winds and seas will diminish across the entire basin into Thu as the gale center lifts farther northward. A reinforcing cold front will follow, but will start to dissipate as it enters the waters between Florida and Bermuda by late Fri. Looking ahead, another cold front may move into the waters off northeast Florida by late Sun. .THIS AFTERNOON...N to NE winds 10 to 15 kt. Seas 4 to 6 ft. .TONIGHT...N to NE winds 10 to 15 kt.
