Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A nearly stationary frontal boundary extends from
1011 mb low pressure south of Mobile Bay toward the Yucatan
peninsula. This pattern is supporting winds to gale force and
building seas over the northeast Gulf and off Veracruz in the
southwest Gulf. Clusters of thunderstorms ahead of the front are
bringing gusty winds and lower visibilities due to locally heavy
rainfall to portions of the eastern Gulf today. Winds and seas
will diminish as the trailing cold front sweeps southeast of the
Gulf tonight and the low lifts northeast toward the Georgia
coast through late Mon. Weak high pressure sets up in the wake
of the front over the western Gulf through mid week. Looking
ahead, winds may increase over the northeast Gulf by late Thu as
a weak front approaches the region.
