Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure over the northeast Gulf will shift
east ahead of a cold front moving east through the Southern
Plains. This will allow fresh SE return flow over the northwest
Gulf to diminish through late Wed. The front will enter the
northern Gulf Thu, stall from southwest Florida to south Texas
Fri, before lifting back north as a warm front Sat ahead of yet
another cold front moving across Texas. The second front is
expected to move across the northwest Gulf, and reach from near
the western Florida panhandle to the SW Gulf Sun night. A warm
front will extend out ahead this front across the eastern gulf.
