.SYNOPSIS...A ridge will dominate the Gulf waters through early
Sun, maintaining moderate to locally fresh SE return flow over
the western Gulf. The next cold front will reach the NW Gulf of
Mexico Sun and extend from the Florida Panhandle to near
Tampico, Mexico by early Mon as broad low pres forms off
Veracruz in the SW Gulf through Mon. The front will stall across
the northern Gulf waters through Tue morning, then lift NW
across the northern Gulf by late Tue as the low moves inland
over NE Mexico and dissipates. The front will then attempt to
move again over the NW Gulf by Wed, probably reaching from SE
Louisiana to near Tampico, Mexico by Wed night.
