Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...The combination of high pressure centered over the
NE Gulf and relatively lower pressure in the western Gulf will
result in fresh to strong winds pulsing off the northwest
Yucatan peninsula during the next several nights. Similar winds
are also forecast in the western Gulf today. Otherwise, moderate
winds and seas will continue through most of the week. A cold
may move into the NW Gulf Sun and Sun night, followed by fresh
northeast winds.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...A large trough extends from 31N64W to the
southeastern Bahamas and to the Windward Passage. The trough will
continue to produce scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
affecting the southeastern Bahamas, Hispaniola and Puerto Rico
through Thu as possible weak low pressure forms along it and
tracks northeastward. Decaying northerly swell across the waters
impacting Puerto Rico southward to the Leeward islands will linger
through early Wed afternoon. High pressure will build over the
waters north of about 20N later this week allowing for generally
tranquil marine conditions. A cold front may move over the waters
east of northeast Florida late Sun night. Scattered showers and
thunderstorms could precede this front.
