Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A stationary front extends from the Florida Big Bend
to NE Mexico. The frontal boundary will begin to move today
across the Gulf waters as a second push of cold air reaches the
area. The cold front will extend from the Florida Big Bend to
near Veracruz Mexico by tonight, and from northern Florida to
the central Bay of Campeche on Wed, then it will continue to
drift southward and reach from southwestern Florida to the Bay
of Campeche on Thu, before becoming stationary and weakening
through Fri. Fresh to strong northerly winds and building seas
are expected in the wake of the front through Thu. Another cold
front is expected to move over the northern Gulf Fri night and
Sat, then stall and lift northward as a warm front Sat night.
Smoke from agricultural fires in southern Mexico and Honduras
will continue to reduce visibility at times over the south
central Gulf.
