Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A weak front extends from the Florida Panhandle near
Apalachicola southwestward to near 26N93W. Scattered showers and
thunderstorms are north of 26N and east of 89W, and are being
supported by a mid to upper-level trough across the southeast
U.S. The front and associated weather will shift E-SE through
Mon, when the front will dissipate across the SE Gulf. Ahead of
the front, moderate to fresh return flow will prevail this
morning then gradually diminish through Mon. Meanwhile, a large
area of haze and smoke due to agricultural fires in Mexico
continues 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 Thu night.
