Campeche by Sun morning. Fresh to near gale N winds and rapidly
building seas will follow the front over the western Gulf Sun
through Mon, with northerly gales expected briefly offshore of
Tampico Sun morning, and off of Veracruz Sun afternoon. The cold
front will reach from the Florida Panhandle to the eastern Bay

pressure will move eastward across the northern Gulf behind the
front Tue night through Thu.
