Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A stationary front extends from near Sarasota,
Florida to the central Gulf near 27.5N90W then continues as a
warm front to the coast of Texas near 27N98W. Moderate to fresh
NE winds follow the front W of 90W. The eastern portion of the
front will move SE and reach from the Straits of Florida to the
central Gulf by early Sun where it will stall again and weaken,
with its remnants lifting back N as a warm front through Sun
night. Moderate to fresh return flow will dominate for the end
of the weekend into early next week, with another front or
trough possibly impacting the western Gulf Mon night. High
pressure should rebuild across the basin mid-week, with moderate
to fresh SE-S winds, locally strong. Meanwhile, haze due to
agricultural fires in Mexico continues across most of the
western Gulf and Bay of Campeche. Fresh to strong winds will
pulse near the Yucatan Peninsula each evening through the
period.
