.SYNOPSIS...A Gale Warning is in effect for the west-central and
SW parts of the Gulf in association with the cold front that
extends from The Florida panhandle to N of Veracruz, Mexico. The
front is forecast to reach from near Tampa Bay to Veracruz,
Mexico by this evening. Gale conditions are currently over the
west- central waters, and are expected in the Veracruz area by
this afternoon. The front will exit the basin tonight. High
pressure will build in the wake of the front producing moderate
to fresh N to NE winds. A trough will develop over the western
Gulf on Wed, tightening the pressure gradient and supporting
fresh to strong winds on either side of the trough axis. A low
may develop along the trough axis over the NW Gulf by Thu
bringing increasing winds and seas.
