Southeast Gulf of America
.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends the Florida Keys to a weak
1012 mb low just north of the Yucatan peninsula. Strong to
locally near gale NE winds, rough seas, and scattered showers in
the E Gulf will continue through Thu, as the frontal boundary
stalls over the near the Florida Straits. Conditions will
gradually improve Fri into the weekend as the high pressure
builds southwestward across the N Gulf.
.TONIGHT...NE winds 20 to 30 kt. Seas 5 to 7 ft. Scattered
showers.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida
.SYNOPSIS...A frontal boundary extends from 31N75W to SE
Florida. This front will drift southeastward tonight, then stall
through the rest of the week along a Bermuda-to-Florida-Straits
line. Low pressure will track NE along the boundary from the
Florida Peninsula tonight to north of the area near Bermuda
Thu. Thunderstorms with gusty winds will accompany this low
pressure. The pressure gradient between strong high pressure to
the north of our waters and the front is supporting NE gales
offshore NE Florida. These gales will spread eastward to about
72W, mainly north of 28N, through Wed night, before gradually
ending as the low pressure moves north of the area. Very rough
seas of 15 to 20 ft will be generated by these gales, and rough
seas in N swell will impact a much larger area through the end of
the week. The front is likely to linger over the basin into the
weekend, so marine conditions could be slow to improve.
