Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extending from northern Florida to the
north-central Gulf to near Tampico, Mexico will reach 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 NW Gulf Thu night into Fri ahead of the next
cold front forecast to enter the basin by late Fri. A low
pressure system could develop along the frontal boundary over
the SW Gulf on Sat. Smoke from agricultural fires in southern
Mexico may cause haze and reduced visibilities over the SW Gulf
the next few days.
