Coastal Waters Forecasts...

Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Relatively weak surface ridging over the region is
allowing for moderate or lighter winds to exist over the
forecast waters. A cold front moving across the waters from
31N78W to 29N81W will press eastward, stretching from Bermuda to
the central Bahamas by Fri evening, then from 29N55W to the SE
Bahamas by Sun with the tail-end of the boundary stalling. High
pressure building in behind the front will tighten the pressure
gradient across the region, bringing moderate to fresh winds and
across waters north of 20N, along with building seas. Conditions
will slightly improve by early next week north of 27N.
