.SYNOPSIS...A 1023 mb high pressure east of northern Florida is
sustaining fresh to locally strong southerly flow across the
entire Gulf through tonight. A strong cold front is forecast to
enter the northwestern Gulf Fri morning, causing strong to near-
gale northerly winds and building seas. As this front moves
southeastward, these conditions will spread to the north-central
Gulf by Fri afternoon. This front will reach from southern 
Florida to the eastern Bay of Campeche on Sat evening, bringing 
strong to near-gale N to NE winds into the northeastern and
central Gulf. Frequent gusts to gale-force are possible at the 
central Gulf Sat evening through Sun. As the front continues 
southeastward passing the Yucatan Channel and Florida Straits on 
Sun night, both winds and seas should gradually subside across 
the Gulf on Mon.
