Southeast Gulf of America

.SYNOPSIS...A weak frontal boundary across the Straits of Florida
will dissipate today. High pressure building across the western
Atlantic in the wake of the front will support fresh to strong E
to SE winds and moderate to rough seas across the Straits of
Florida and southeast Gulf Fri into Sun. Looking ahead, the high
pressure will weaken allowing the winds and seas to diminish
through early next week across the southeastern Gulf.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extending from east of Bermuda through 
the central Bahamas and into Florida Straits will slowly drift 
southward through Fri, and high pressure is expected to build in
 the wake of the front. A strengthening pressure gradient between
these features will support widespread moderate to fresh NE winds
and building seas across the northern Bahamas Fri into Sun. 
Looking ahead, the high pressure will weaken allowing the winds 
and seas to diminish through early next week off the east coast of
Florida and the northern Bahamas.
