GMZ001-290230- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 1151 AM EST Sat Nov 28 2020 .SYNOPSIS...A cold front that currently extends from the western Florida panhandle to inland central Texas will move a little southward through this afternoon and become stationary tonight. The front will begin to lift back north as a warm front late tonight into Sun morning. At the same time, low pressure will track northeastward along the upper Texas coast dragging a strong cold front into the NW Gulf. The front will quickly reach from near Mobile Bay to the central Gulf and to the eastern Bay of Campeche by early Sun evening and to southeast of the Gulf by Mon night. The front will be followed by fresh to strong northerly winds and building seas. Gale force winds are likely in the extreme SW Gulf Mon into Mon night. Winds diminish and seas subside Tue. High pressure in the wake of the front will shift eastward Tue night through Wed night allowing for moderate to fresh east to southeast flow to set up across the area. Another cold front is expected to move into the NW Gulf Wed night. $$ GMZ011-290230- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 1151 AM EST Sat Nov 28 2020 .TODAY...SE winds 10 to 15 kt, except NE 20 to 25 kt N of 28N.
