Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front approaching the northern Gulf will
stall across the central Gulf tonight. Strong S winds and
building seas will follow the western half this front over the
central Gulf as it lifts north of the area as a warm front
through Sun ahead of another front approaching the northwest
Gulf. The second front will stall from the northeast Gulf to the
west central Gulf by late Mon. Looking ahead, a weak
reinforcement Tue will allow the front to continue to drift into
the southeast Gulf by mid week. Smoke from agricultural fires in
southern Mexico may reduce visibility over the SW Gulf and Bay
of Campeche.
