.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from the Florida Keys to
23N88W, continuing as a stationary front to Veracruz, Mexico.
Fresh to strong NW winds are offshore Veracruz and W of the
Yucatan Peninsula, with moderate to fresh N to NE winds
elsewhere behind the front. Seas of 4 to 7 ft, up to 8 ft near
Veracruz, will gradually subside through Tue. The majority of
the front will push SE of the basin later tonight with the
western portion dissipating. High pressure will dominate in the
wake of the front through mid-week. Winds will increase to fresh
to strong across most of the basin by the end of the week into
the weekend as the pressure gradient tightens, which will also
build seas reaching 7 to 11 ft basinwide Sat night. Fresh to
strong winds will pulse near the Yucatan Peninsula in the
evenings.
