Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A ridge will dominate the Gulf waters through the
next several days, supporting generally moderate to fresh E to
SE winds in the western Gulf and near the Yucatan Peninsula,
occasionally strong, and gentle to moderate winds in the eastern
Gulf. By the end of the week, the ridge may weaken allowing for
winds to diminish somewhat. Hazy conditions due to agricultural
fires over Central America and Mexico will continue for the next
couple of days reducing visibility to around 3 nm at times,
mainly over the western half of the Gulf.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...A stationary front from 27N55W westward to along
25N/26N will weaken into a surface trough by this evening. Energy
associated with a convectively active tropical wave, currently
over the W Caribbean, will lift NNE and merge with this trough by
Tue. Afterwards, the trough will drift eastward and move to the
central subtropical Atlantic waters Thu into Fri, with low
pressure possibly developing along it. Fresh to occasionally
strong SW winds are forecast ahead of this trough/low as it
crosses the north-central and then eastern offshore waters.
Ridging will build across the basin Thu through Fri night.
