Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A weak stationary front extending from along the
coast of the Florida panhandle to 27N90W and to near 23N92W will
transition to a cold front this afternoon and quickly sweep
across the southeastern Gulf through Sat, reaching the Straits
of Florida Sat evening and to southeast of the area early Sun.
High pressure behind the front will shift to just east of
northeast Florida on Sun allowing for mainly fresh southerly
winds to set up over the far western Gulf. These winds will
shift eastward and diminish through Mon as a strong cold front
approaches the Texas coast. This front will move off the Texas
coast Mon afternoon, reach from near Pensacola, Florida to
25N93W and to near Veracruz early Tue and from near
Apalachicola, Florida to 24N89W and to the eastern Bay of
Campeche Tue night. Gale force northerly winds are possible west
of the front near the coast of Mexico.
