NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL
340 AM EST Fri Mar 11 2022

...Please refer to Coastal Waters Forecasts (CWF) available
through NOAA Weather Radio and other means for detailed
Coastal Waters Forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...A surface trough extends from northern Florida to
28N88W and to near 25N92W. The trough will slowly dissipate
through early this afternoon. Fresh southerly winds are expected
to develop in the central Gulf on Fri ahead of a strong cold
front expected to enter the NW Gulf Fri evening. Gale-force
winds and very rough seas are expected in the wake of the front
over the western and north-central portion of the Gulf waters
Fri night and Sat. Strong to near gale-force winds and rough
seas will follow this front across the rest of the basin through
Sat night. High pressure in the wake of the front will then
shift eastward through Mon, allowing for fresh east to southeast
return flow to set up over the Gulf in advance of the next cold
front. This cold front is expected to enter the far NW Gulf late
Mon night, and reach from the western Florida panhandle to the
eastern Bay of Campeche by late Tue. Fresh winds will precede
and follow this front.
