Coastal Waters Forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...A weakening stationary front extends from the NW
coast of Cuba to just N of the Yucatan Peninsula. The front is
expected to dissipate later this morning. High pressure centered
over the SE U.S. will slide eastward through late today as a low
pressure system develops over eastern Texas, and quickly tracks
east-northeastward across the southern U.S. while deepening. The
low will drag a strong cold front across the Gulf of Mexico late
this afternoon through Thu. Near gale-force to gale-force
southerly winds are expected ahead of the front over the NW and
north-central Gulf today and tonight, and near gale-force
northwest winds are expected over the NW Gulf this evening.
Gale- force winds are expected offshore Tampico late tonight,
and offshore Veracruz Wed in the wake of the front. Winds and
seas will gradually improve by Fri. Fresh southerly return flow
will begin to set-up in the far western Gulf starting Sat in
response to the next cold front that will be approaching the NW
Gulf. Fresh to strong east winds will surge from the
southwestern Atlantic through the Straits of Florida and into
the far southeastern Gulf Sat and Sat night.
