.SYNOPSIS...Strong thunderstorms are moving off the Texas and
Louisiana coast. These storms are producing frequent lightning,
gusty winds and locally rough seas. Outside of those storms,
weak surface ridging will continue to dominate across the Gulf
through Sat. As a result, winds will pulse moderate to fresh
this evening through the weekend. A weak cold front will move
across the far NE Gulf tonight, followed by gentle W to NW
winds. Haze in the western and central Gulf is present due to
agricultural fires over Central America and Mexico will continue
for at least the next couple of days, impacting visibility at
times.
