.SYNOPSIS...Southerly return flow dominates much of the Gulf
region ahead of a cold front currently entering the northern
Gulf waters. An area of showers with embedded tstms is over the
NE Gulf ahead of the front associated with a pre-frontal trough.
Winds and seas could be higher near tstms. The front will stall
from South Florida to South Texas by late Mon, then dissipate as
it lifts northward Tue ahead of a another cold front moving into
the northwest Gulf late Wed. Fresh to strong northerly winds
will follow the front mainly off the coast of Mexico as the
front reaches a position from central Florida to the southwest
Gulf.
