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

.SYNOPSIS...A high pressure ridge between the Bahamas and
Bermuda interacting with a strong extra-tropical low over the
U.S. Midwest is forcing fresh to strong SE to S winds over the W
and central Gulf of Mexico. As the extratropical low pulls
northeastward, these winds should diminish over most of the Gulf
on Thu. However, a diurnal trough developing over the Yucatan
Peninsula during the day will induce fresh to strong E to SE
winds over the SW Gulf nightly for the next several days.
Elsewhere, moderate or weaker E to SE winds should prevail
through Sun night. Looking ahead, a weak cold front may emerge
off of the Texas and Louisiana coast on Mon.
