Coastal Waters Forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...Areas of dense fog in the NE Gulf coastal waters will
dissipate later this morning. A cold front extending from near 
the Florida Alabama line to near Tampico, Mexico will slowly 
shift east-southeast, reaching from the Big Bend of Florida to 
the Bay of Campeche by Thu morning, and exiting the Gulf by early
Fri. A squall line ahead of the front, mainly N of 26N, will 
result in hazardous conditions. Moderate to fresh southerly winds
ahead of the front will persist through today before 
diminishing. Moderate to locally fresh winds are forecast in the 
wake of the front. Return flow around high pressure over the SE 
U.S. will dominate this weekend, weakening by Sun night as the 
next front potentially moves into the NW Gulf.
