Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A broad high pressure ridge extends from the western
Atlantic into the southeastern U.S. The pressure gradient
between this ridge and troughs over Mexico and the northwest
Caribbean are supporting fresh winds and moderate seas across
most of the Gulf region. Moderate to fresh SE winds across the
northwestern part of the basin will strengthen tonight into Tue
as a cold front slowly approaches E Texas. Potential Tropical
Cyclone Eighteen is becoming better organized in the southwest
Caribbean, and may move across western Cuba into the
southeastern Gulf Wed morning as a strong tropical storm or
hurricane, then move into the north-central Gulf Fri. Marine
interests in the eastern Gulf should continue to monitor the
latest advisories from National Hurricane Center on the
development and track of Eighteen.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...A trough extends from Hispaniola to 26N63W. The 
pressure gradient between the trough and strong high pressure 
north of the region is supporting strong to near gale- force 
easterly winds and rough to very rough seas across the waters 
northwest of the trough. The trough will shift westward today,
as building high pressure north of the area follows a cold front
 moving across the western Atlantic before becoming stationary
and  weakening along 22N by Wed. High pressure building to the
north  will support fresh to strong easterly winds and rough to
very  rough seas across the basin by mid week. Looking ahead, a
trough  will develop along the dissipating front, north of the
Leeward  Islands by Thu, then move west across Puerto Rico and
Hispaniola  through Fri.
