Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A low pressure system will develop over the northern
Gulf on Fri and move eastward across the NE Gulf through Fri
night. Its associated cold front will sweep across the basin Fri
through Sat, resulting in increasing northerly winds and
building seas across much of the basin through Sat night. A
brief period of gale force NW winds will develop near the coast
of Veracruz on Fri afternoon west of the front. High pressure
will pass eastward across the northern Gulf Sun into early Mon.
Southerly return flow will strengthen off the Texas coast Mon
and Mon night.
