.SYNOPSIS...A cold front is exiting the Gulf waters. Fresh to
strong NW winds and rough seas are still noted over the NE Gulf.
Winds and seas will diminish through tonight as high pressure
builds from west to east over the northern Gulf coast in the
wake of the front. Fresh winds will pulse off the west coast of
Yucatan Thu and Fri as a trough develops there in the evenings.
Moist E to SE flow will support areas of fog Thu and Fri as
well. Looking ahead, low pressure will develop over the
northwest Gulf late Fri. The attendant cold front will reach
from the Florida Big Bend to near Veracruz, Mexico Sat
afternoon, and from Ft. Myers, FL to western Cuba Sat night.
Fresh to strong winds and rough seas are expected on both sides
of the front. Winds to minimal gale-force are possible in the
wake of the front on Sat.
