Southeast Gulf of America .SYNOPSIS...A stationary front extending from just inland northern Florida westward to southeastern Louisiana will linger through the weekend, then shift southward some as a cold front early next week as low pressure develops along it and tracks northeastward to east of the southeastern U.S. coast. The front will help maintain unsettled weather conditions, with locally hazardous winds and seas mainly along and just offshore the northern Gulf coast through the weekend. Some of these conditions may spread southward some over the offshore waters. The weak gradient in place will maintain mainly gentle to moderate winds and slight to locally moderate seas through the period. .TODAY...S to SW winds 5 to 10 kt, shifting to SW to W in the afternoon. Seas 2 ft or less. Scattered showers and isolated tstms. .TONIGHT...NW to N winds 5 to 10 kt, shifting to E to SE after midnight. Seas 2 ft or less. .SUN...SW winds less than 5 kt, shifting to W to NW in the afternoon. Seas 2 ft or less. Scattered showers and isolated tstms. .SUN NIGHT...N winds 5 to 10 kt.

Seas 2 ft or less. Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida .SYNOPSIS...A stationary front extends from near 31N71W to NE Florida. The combination of this feature with an upper level trough passing east of NE Florida is resulting in scattered to numerous showers west of 75W. Low pressure is expected to form along the front west of the area and track ENE to offshore the southeastern United States tonight through Mon. As this happens, the stationary front will transition to a cold front that will slowly sink southward through late Mon. Behind it, strengthening high pressure will surge southward along the southeastern U.S. coast increasing the gradient behind the front leading to fresh to locally strong NE-E winds N of 29N and W of 79W Sun night into Tue. Expect for the scattered showers and thunderstorms to continue through the weekend, except into early next week for the northwest portion of the area. Elsewhere, high pressure will remain in control of the general weather pattern providing for a gentle to moderate anticyclonic wind flow. .TODAY...S to SW winds less than 5 kt S of 27N, and S 5 to 10 kt N of 27N. Seas 2 ft or less. Scattered showers and isolated tstms. .TONIGHT...S to SW winds 5 to 10 kt. Seas 2 ft or less. Scattered showers and isolated tstms. .SUN...W to NW winds 5 to 10 kt.
