...Please refer to Coastal Waters Forecasts (CWF) available

.SYNOPSIS...Patchy dense marine fog is possible at times,
especially within 20 NM of the US coastline through this 
morning. A tight pressure gradient between a developing winter 
storm over the US Southern Plains and high pressure over the W 
Atlantic will force fresh to strong SE to S return flow through 
this morning across the Gulf of Mexico. A cold front will slowly 
move off of the Texas coast this afternoon, reaching from the Big
Bend of Florida to the Bay of Campeche Thu morning, and exiting 
the Gulf by Thu night. Moderate to fresh winds will prevail in 
its wake on Fri and Sat, with return flow this weekend.
