Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extending southwest from the Florida
Big Bend to 25N95W to Veracruz Mexico will weaken across the
southern gulf waters on Thu, and then gradually dissipate on Thu
night into Fri. A second cold front will enter the far northwest
waters late Fri night, stall from southwest Florida to Veracruz
Mexico on Sun, with remnants of the front lifting rapidly
northeast on Sun night and Mon as a third cold front reaches the
northern coastal waters. A thermal trough will develop over the
Yucatan Peninsula during the afternoons, drift west across the
eastern Bay of Campeche during the overnight hours, and
dissipate over the southwest gulf waters by late each morning.
