Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

cold front is expected to reach the NW Gulf Sun evening, and
extend from the Florida Big Bend to near 25N90W by Mon
afternoon. Fresh to strong southerly winds are expected ahead of
the front beginning tonight and continuing through Mon evening
as the front moves across the area. Scattered strong
thunderstorms, some could be strong, are possible ahead of this
front. Otherwise, smoke from agricultural fires in southern
Mexico and Honduras could reduce visibility, mainly in the SW
