Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to near gale force south-southwest winds are
across the north-central and NE Gulf ahead of a cold front
expected to come off the Texas coast later today. The front will
stall from Pensacola, Florida to El Mezquital, Mexico on Sun
morning, then will lift slowly northward through Mon. The front
will then merge with a reinforcing cold front that will move
across central Florida on Tue and south Florida on Wed. Strong
high pressure building southward behind the front will induce
strong northerly winds west of the reinforcing front, with near
gale to gale force winds likely near Veracruz Tue evening.
