.SYNOPSIS...High pres ridging extending from the Atlantic
westward to across the northern gulf will begin to weaken and
slide eastward on Mon night in response to a cold front that
will move across Texas. This cold front will reach the Texas
coast late Tue night, and move across the NW gulf during Wed
morning, reach from N-central Florida to near 25N90W and to near
Veracruz Mexico by Wed evening, then weaken across the southern
gulf waters on Thu and dissipate Thu night. Fresh to strong NE
winds will follow in behind the front becoming mainly moderate
to fresh NE to E winds on Thu and Thu night as high pres ridging
over the northern gulf slides eastward. Return southerly flow of
SE to S moderate to fresh winds develop over the western gulf
from late Thu night through Fri night as the ridging continues
to shift eastward. A thermal trough will develop over the
Yucatan Peninsula during the afternoons, drift west across the
eastern Bay of Campeche during the overnight hours, and
dissipate over the SW gulf by late each morning through Fri
followed by fresh to strong E to SE winds Mon and Tue.
