Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A frontal boundary extending from the western
Florida Panhandle to SE of Brownsville near 25N96W will weaken
and dissipate through Saturday as it slowly moves southeastward.
SE. A trough extending from 25N93W to inland the NW Yucatan
Peninsula will drift westward, and move inland along the
Tamaulipas and Veracruz coast of Mexico by early Sunday. High
pressure will then build southward across the eastern and
central waters through Sunday night, then begin to shift
eastward on Monday as a strong cold front moves across the
central United States. This cold front is expected to reach the
Texas coast early Tuesday afternoon, then reach from near Mobile 
Bay to the SW gulf late Tuesday night, from the NE gulf to the 
eastern Bay of Campeche early Wednesday afternoon and from near 
Tampa to the NW Yucatan Peninsula Wednesday night. Strong 
northerly winds and rapidly building seas will follow in the 
wake of the front, with winds possibly reaching gale force over 
portions of the far W central and SW gulf waters.
