.SYNOPSIS...Weak high pressure off the SE United States combined
with surface troughing over Mexico will continue to force moderate
to fresh SE to S return flow over the Gulf of Mexico through 
Fri. The diurnal trough forming over the Yucatan will promote 
strong E winds over the SW Gulf tonight and Thu night. Winds will
diminish across the Gulf Fri ahead of a cold front that is 
expected to enter the NW Gulf Fri night. N to NE winds behind the
front should be moderate to fresh on Sat. By Sun morning, the 
dissipating front will extend from SW Florida to near the Texas- 
Mexico border. Looking ahead, as a surface ridge builds to the 
north of the Gulf, fresh to strong E to SE to E winds are 
expected on Sun and Mon over most of the Gulf.
