Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extending from the Florida Big Bend
across the northern Gulf to NE Mexico will reach from near Tampa
Bay to NE Mexico later today, from SW Florida to Tampico, Mexico
tonight, then move south of the basin on Thu while weakening.
Fresh to strong northerly winds are expected in the wake of the
front, but mainly over the eastern half of the Gulf waters.
Fresh to strong southerly winds are expected in the western Gulf
on Fri as a low pressure system develops over the southern U.S.
Smoke from agricultural fires in southern Mexico could cause
haze and reduced visibilities over the SW Gulf the next few
days.
