Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from SW Florida to 25N85W to
near Veracruz, Mexico. Fresh to locally strong N-NE winds are
occurring behind the front, with the strongest winds off
Veracruz. The front will push SE of the basin by this evening
with conditions gradually improving. High pressure will dominate
in the wake of the front through mid- week. Winds will increase by
the end of the week as the pressure gradient tightens, which will
also build seas. Fresh to strong winds will pulse near the
Yucatan Peninsula in the evenings.
