Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A relatively weak high pressure ridge will continue
to extend from the western Atlantic across the northern Gulf
into the upcoming week. This will maintain a weak pressure
pattern over the basin. Mostly moderate to fresh SE to S winds
will exist W of 87W through early Mon while light to gentle SE
to S winds will exist E of 87W. The winds W of 87W will shift to
W of 90W afterwards while winds east of 87W generally become
light and variable, except S of 26N where they become gentle NE
winds. Seas will be slight to moderate during the period. A cold
front is expected to move across the NE Gulf Tue through Wed,
followed by gentle to moderate W to NW winds. Fresh to strong
winds will pulse near the northern and western Yucatan Peninsula
during the late afternoons and at night through the period. Hazy
conditions due to agricultural fires in Mexico continue across
most of the western Gulf and Bay of Campeche.
