.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to near gale-force N to NW winds extend from

the front with possible frequent gust to minimal gale force
winds. The front will sweep southeast of the Gulf late tonight,
thus allowing for the winds and seas to diminish Mon morning as
high pressure builds across the basin. Surface ridging will
prevail through mid week, then a weaker cold front is forecast
to stall over the northern Gulf Thu through early Fri. Fresh to 
strong SE winds will develop in the NW Gulf Tue and continue 
through Wed ahead of the new front.
