Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Strong high pressure over the SE United States will
continue to force fresh to strong NE to E winds over most of the
Gulf of Mexico through Sat evening. However, winds with fresh to
strong speeds will continue for the Florida Straits through Sun
night. On Mon and Tue, conditions will be quiescent across the
entire Gulf. Looking ahead, the next cold front should reach the
NW Gulf of Mexico on Wed.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...A stationary front that extends from just east of 
Bermuda to central Cuba should dissipate tonight. A 1009 mb low 
near 21N65W sits along a north-south oriented trough. As the 
low/trough shifts westward, a large area of strong to near gale
NE winds and very rough seas will set up over all of the waters
west of 65W during the weekend. As the pressure gradient
tightens between the low/trough and high pressure over the US 
mid-Atlantic waters, peak winds should reach gale force later 
tonight through Sat night between the waters of the Bahamas and 
Bermuda. During Sun and Mon, conditions will gradually improve, 
and by Tue and Wed winds will be reduced to moderate to fresh 
across the entire area.
