Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Strong N winds are expected surrounding a persistent
trough in the western Gulf, with winds increasing to gale force
late tonight offshore of Tampico and Veracruz. Gale force winds
will continue through Fri before diminishing from north to south
through Fri night. Very rough seas will accompany the winds on
Fri before diminishing through Sat morning. Otherwise, moderate
to locally fresh N to NE winds will prevail across the rest of
the basin, with winds increasing to fresh to strong speeds late
tonight and Fri, including through the Florida Straits, as high
pressure builds over the southeastern United States. Winds will
turn to the SE in the western half of the Gulf this weekend and
become fresh to locally strong ahead of low pressure building in
the central U.S. By the end of the weekend into early next week,
more tranquil marine conditions are forecast basin-wide as the
pressure gradient weakens.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong trade winds and rough seas will
occur in the open Tropical Atlantic waters south of 23N through
early next week. Elsewhere, fresh to locally strong N winds will 
occur off the coast of Florida through Fri morning surrounding low
pressure centered in the western Bahamas. The low will strengthen
and accelerate northeastward Fri into this weekend. Widespread 
fresh to strong N to NW winds and rapidly building seas will occur
surrounding the low on Fri, generally north of 20N and west of 
65W. An associated cold front will trail the low pressure and move
eastward this weekend, producing fresh to strong N to NE winds 
and rough seas in its wake.
