.SYNOPSIS...A late season cold front extends from near
Apalachicola, Florida to 25N90W and to inland Mexico near Ciudad
del Carmen. The front will reach from South Florida to the
northeast Yucatan Peninsula this evening and to just southeast
of the Gulf early on Thu. Fresh to strong winds and building
seas will follow in behind the west of the front while fresh to
strong southerly winds will precede it. Scattered showers and
thunderstorms will accompany the front, with some of the storms
possibly becoming severe. Winds and seas will decrease Thu
through Fri as high pressure builds in the wake of the front.
The high pressure will shift eastward through the end of the
week allowing for mostly fresh east to southeast winds to
develop over the western and central Gulf through Sat night,
then diminish Sun.
