.SYNOPSIS...A cold front from Mississippi to the Bay of Campeche
will race eastward tonight, with scattered to numerous strong
thunderstorms expected ahead of it over the north-central and NE
Gulf of Mexico. These thunderstorms may bring locally hazardous
winds and seas. Behind the cold front, fresh to strong NW to N
winds are expected until the front moves SE of the area Sun. A
period of near gale force N winds is likely offshore Veracruz,
Mexico, tonight into Sun. In the wake of the front, high
pressure will build into the region, leading to quiescent
conditions by early next week and continuing through much of
next week.
