Coastal Waters Forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...A strong cold front extending from Cape Coral,
Florida SW to the Yucatan Peninsula will exit the basin this
morning. A strong pressure gradient between the front and high
pressure building behind it is supporting fresh to strong
northerly winds in the E and SW gulf. Rough seas in the 8 to
15 ft range cover these regions, being the highest seas in the
SW gulf. Winds in the SW and E gulf will diminish to moderate to
fresh speeds by noon today and seas will subside below 8 ft at
night. Looking ahead, the aforementioned front is forecast to
stall across the western Atlantic and NW Caribbean on Tue,
before drifting back towards the Straits of Florida and the SE
Gulf on Wed. The pressure gradient between very strong high
pressure north of the area and lower pressure associated with
the frontal boundary will lead to fresh to near gale force winds
across the E and NW gulf Tue evening through Thu with potential
gale force winds developing over the north-central and NE basin
Thu night through Fri night.
