Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A weak cold front is moving across the northwest
Gulf, just ahead of a stronger reinforcing front moving quickly
through coastal Texas. Strong to possibly severe thunderstorms
may are possible over the northeast Gulf this morning ahead of 
the fronts. The two fronts will merge tonight and reach from the 
northeast Gulf to west central Gulf. The merged front will 
continue to slowly drift south Tue, reaching from southwest 
Florida to near Veracruz Mexico through mid-week before stalling 
then dissipating from the Florida keys to the southwest Gulf Thu.
Another weak front may approach the northwest Gulf Fri. 
Meanwhile, increasing smoke from agricultural fires in southern 
Mexico and in Honduras will continue to reduce visibility over the
SW Gulf.
