Coastal Waters Forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...A weak frontal trough extends from near Fort Myers,
Florida southwestward to 25N85W and to near 22N96W. Scattered
showers and thunderstorms are along the trough east of 89W and
south from the trough to 25N. Similar activity is from 22N to
25N between 87W and 92W. This activity is being supported by a
rather vigorous mid to upper-level trough that extends from the
southeastern U.S. coast southwestward to the south-central Gulf.
The trough and associated weather will continue to shift E to SE
across the eastern Gulf, reaching the vicinity of the Florida
Keys Mon night and the Straits of Florida Tue. Winds are likely
to be gusty along with rough seas in and near the shower and
thunderstorm activity. Meanwhile, hazy conditions due to
agricultural fires in Mexico continue across most of the western
Gulf and Bay of Campeche. Moderate to locally fresh SE return
flow will develop again across the W Gulf Tue through Fri night.
