Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure extending from the Atlantic to the

Gulf to near 26N93W and to the Mexican coast near 23N98W by
early Fri evening, and from a position from near Sarasota,
Florida to 24N92W and to the SW Gulf Sat. Strong northerly winds
and building seas are expected behind this front. The northerly
winds are expected to reach minimal gale force late Fri night
through Sat night over the far western Gulf S of 26N. Scattered
