more than twice the significant wave height.

Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from N central Florida to
28N89W and to 27N93W, where it becomes a warm front to a weak
1016 mb low over the NW Gulf near 27N96W. A stationary front
then trails from the low to 23N96W to 20N97W. The cold front
will sweep across the eastern and central Gulf waters today and
and become a stationary front over the SE Gulf on Mon. The low
will slowly move northeastward through Mon night, then
east-northeastward across the north-central waters through Thu
night and the NE Gulf by Fri, dragging a new cold front across
the SW Gulf. The pressure gradient between the low and high
pressure building over the southeastern United States will
support fresh to strong north to northeast winds and building
seas over the northern Gulf today before diminishing Mon. Fresh
to strong northerly winds are also expected over the western
Gulf behind the cold front. On Mon, fresh to strong north to 
northeast winds over the NW Gulf will slowly diminish through 
Thu.
