.DISCUSSION...
A broad area of high pressure centered over the northern Gulf will
keep a persistent light onshore flow of 5 to 10 knots in place
through Tuesday. These light winds will allow seas to remain calm
at 2 feet or less through Sunday. A weak cold front will stall as
it slides into the northern Gulf Monday into Tuesday causing winds
to become light and variable. By Wednesday afternoon, winds will turn
back to the southeast as a broad area of low pressure begins to form
over the central Gulf. This low will move toward the area on Thursday
with an associated increase in winds, waves, and rain chances.
