Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Mainly fresh SE winds will prevail across much of
the Gulf through tonight, ahead of a cold front slowly
approaching from the NW. The cold front will move off the Texas
coast into the northwest Gulf Fri and move SE, stalling from
south Texas to the Straits of Florida on Sun, then weaken and
drift northward. Moderate to locally fresh NE winds will follow
the front into Sat evening. Haze due to agricultural fires in
southeastern Mexico persists across most of the western Gulf.
Patchy fog is possible along the northern Gulf coast today.
