Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A relatively weak high pressure ridge will continue
to extend from the western Atlantic across the E Gulf into the
upcoming week. This will maintain a weak pressure pattern over
the basin. Mostly moderate to fresh SE to S winds will exist W
of 87W through early Mon while light to gentle SE to S winds
will exist E of 87W. The winds W of 87W will shift to W of 90W
afterwards while winds east of 87W generally become light and
variable, except S of 26N where they become gentle NE to E
winds. Seas will be slight to moderate during the period. A weak
cold front will move across the far NE Gulf Mon and Mon night,
followed by gentle W to NW winds. Fresh to strong winds will
pulse near the northern and western Yucatan Peninsula during the
late afternoons and at night through Tue, then pulse to mostly
fresh speeds afterwards.

.OVERNIGHT...SE winds 5 to 10 kt. Seas 2 ft or less.
.MON...SE to S winds 5 to 10 kt. Seas 2 ft or less.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...A trough extends from 31N57W to 26N63W. Scattered
showers and thunderstorms moving eastward are between 23N and
28N  and east of 56W. Otherwise, relatively weak high pressure
elsewhere will change little during the next few days. The
associated gradient will support mostly moderate winds and seas
north of the Bahamas and off NE Florida by Mon night as the high
 pressure shifts eastward ahead of a weakening cold front that
will move across the waters north of the Bahamas Tue into
midweek. Moderate to fresh southerly winds will precede the
front. Scattered showers and thunderstorms may accompany the
front.
