Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A strong cold front extends from near Marco Island
Florida to the W coast of Cuba and across the Yucatan Channel
and will move SE and exit the basin this afternoon. Strong winds
and high seas across most of the Gulf will slowly subside
through tonight. Surface ridging southward over the Gulf will
shift E and allow strong SE to S return flow to develop in the
western Gulf of Mexico by Tue morning. The strong return flow
will expand to the eastern Gulf of Mexico Tue night. Another
strong cold front could enter the NW Gulf of Mexico by Wed
morning and introduce another round of gales to the Mexican
coast.
