Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A broad area of low pressure is expected to develop 
over the SW or south-central Gulf of Mexico this weekend, and 
thereafter some gradual development is possible while the low 
moves slowly eastward or northeastward. A tropical or subtropical 
depression or storm could form during the early to middle part of 
next week if the low remains separate from a frontal boundary that
is forecast to extend across the Gulf of Mexico next week. 
Regardless of tropical or subtropical development, increasing 
winds and building seas are forecast including behind the frontal 
boundary with thunderstorms increasing in activity and potentially
impacting most of the basin.
