.SYNOPSIS...
A strong cold front sweeps through the region this evening into
tonight with marine conditions quickly deteriorating behind
frontal passage. Strong northwest winds will occur in the wake
of the front with gusts occasionally to gale force, especially in
waters west of Apalachicola tonight through Monday night. Wave
heights will build to 7 to 10 feet in the offshore waters and 4 to
8 feet in the nearshore waters. Thus, a Small Craft Advisory is
currently in effect for this time period. Winds and seas begin to
decrease late Tuesday morning as high pressure settles into the
southeast US and northeast Gulf waters.
