Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from South Florida near
25N80.5W, to 24N82.5W. The front becomes stationary and it
continues from 24N82.5W to 22.5N90W, and to a 1015 mb low
pressure center that is near 20.5N91.5W. The front continues to
Campeche Mexico. High pressure is present to the northwest and
north of the frontal bouneary. The gradient between the front
and high pressure across Texas and eastern Mexico, will support
strong to near gale-force northwest to north winds behind the
stationary front and to the west of 94W through early Monday
evening, and then the wind speeds will diminish to strong
through Tuesday night. Strong NE to E winds will cover just
about the entire Gulf of Mexico from Monday through Tuesday. The
cold front will reach from 26N81W to 25N86W and stationary to
22N95W and to 18N93W by early this evening, and continue to push
southward through Tuesday, as it moves to NW Cuba, becoming
stationary on Wednesday.
