A cold front is forecast to enter the northwestern basin later on Tue, with fresh to locally strong N to NW winds expected behind the front, mainly offshore of the US Gulf coast. Fresh to strong NW winds will prevail east of 90W and north of 25W Wed into Thu as the cold front moves southeastward through the basin. Looking ahead, high pressure building over the central United States late this week will support moderate to fresh E to SE winds across the basin. .TONIGHT...E winds 10 to 15 kt.
