Southeast Gulf of America

.SYNOPSIS...A weak cold front extends from SW Louisiana to
offshore Texas to near Brownsville, with gentle to moderate
winds and slight to moderate seas across the basin. A stronger
reinforcing cold front will overtake the aforementioned weak
front early Wed while reaching from the western Florida
Panhandle to 28N90W to NE Mexico. The cold front will then sweep
to the southeast of the basin by Thu night into Fri, followed by
fresh to strong northeast winds and building seas into the
weekend. Scattered showers and thunderstorms may accompany the
fronts. Moderate to fresh return flow under strong high pressure
is forecast by Sat afternoon. Another front may move into the NW
waters early Sun.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...A weak cold front extends from 29N55W to 28N73W,
with the tail end as a dissipating stationary front to near Cape
Canaveral, Florida. The eastern portion of the front will
continue eastward and reach from 26N55W to 25N70W by early Wed,
while the western portion dissipates. High pressure located off
New England will shift eastward following the front, supporting
moderate to fresh northeast to east winds and moderate seas over
the region, locally rough near 55W. Looking ahead, winds and seas
will diminish west of 70W by Wed, ahead of a stronger cold front
expected to move off the northeast Florida coast Wed night. The
front will reach from near Bermuda to the Straits of Florida by
early Fri, followed by fresh to strong NW winds and building seas
through Fri night. A tightened pressure gradient in the wake of
the front is forecast to bring increasing winds and building seas
across much of the forecast area Sat, gradually diminishing from
west to east Sun.
