.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from the W Florida panhandle to
southern Texas, with scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
ahead of the front. High pressure dominates the remainder of the
basin. The front will reach from N-central Florida to the
W-central Gulf to Veracruz, Mexico this evening, then will weaken
and eventually wash out as it pushes through the southern Gulf by
Mon evening. Fresh to strong winds and building seas will follow
the front through early Mon, lingering offshore of Veracruz
through Mon evening. High pressure will rebuild in the wake of the
front, with gentle to moderate winds across the NE half of the
basin, and moderate to fresh across the SW half, pulsing to fresh
to strong NW of the Yucatan Peninsula at night.
