Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico .SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from a 1010 mb low over eastern Texas to Galveston Bay, then to 26N94W and to near 23N97W. Numerous showers and strong thunderstorms, with strong gusty winds and frequent lightning, are ahead of the front over waters north of 25N and east to 87W. The cold front will reach from southwestern Louisiana to 25N95W and to near Veracruz later this morning, from near southeastern Louisiana to 25N90W and to just inland Mexico near 18N94W early this evening, and move across the eastern Gulf through Tue night. The front will weaken to a trough as it moves across the remainder of the eastern Gulf early on Wed, expected to exit the area Wed afternoon. High pressure in the wake of the front will shift to the eastern Gulf by Thu as a weak cold front approaches the Texas coast. Fresh to strong return flow will develop over the western Gulf Wed night through most of Thu. This front is expected to become stationary along or just offshore the Texas coast Thu through Fri night.
