Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A warm front extends along the coast of Louisiana
and connects to a low pressure over southern Texas from where a
dissipating stationary front extends to near Tampico, Mexico.
The frontal boundary will dissipate over the Gulf this evening.
High pressure building north of the front over the SE United
States will maintain fresh to strong SE winds over the western
Gulf into tonight, accompanied by rough seas and scattered
showers and thunderstorms. Looking ahead, a weak cold front will
reach the northern Gulf coast Thu, stall across the central Gulf
by late Fri before dissipating Sat. Broad high pressure and
associated ridging will build across the basin Thu night into
Mon, thus supporting moderate to fresh E to SE winds basin-wide
Fri night through Mon.  

.TONIGHT...E winds 10 to 15 kt. Seas 3 to 5 ft. 
.THU...E winds 5 to 10 kt. Seas 3 ft in the morning, subsiding to
2 ft or less.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...Moderate NW winds and seas follow a leading cold 
front reaching from 31N53W to north-central Hispaniola. A
second, reinforcing cold front, extends from 31N65W to Andros
Island to the Straits of Florida. Fresh N to NW winds and
moderate seas are ongoing west of this front to 76W and N of 25N.
The fronts will merge tonight and then stall before dissipating 
late on Thu. High pressure building in behind the merged front 
will continue to support strong NE winds south of 25N, offshore 
Hispaniola and eastern Cuba through early Thu morning. Looking 
ahead, the next cold front will move into the waters off northeast
Florida late Thu into Fri, bringing large NW swell to the waters 
between northeast Florida and Bermuda north of 28N through Sun.

midnight. Seas 3 to 4 ft.
