.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong NE to NW winds and rough seas will 
occur over northern and western portions of the basin today as a
low pressure system moves southeastward through the Gulf of 
Mexico. Moderate to locally fresh S to SW winds are expected 
across the basin on Fri and Sat ahead of a cold front moving 
through the southern U.S. and into the northwestern Gulf late on 
Sat. Fresh N winds will follow the front by early Sun, with 
winds strengthening to strong speeds across much of the basin on 
Sun. Rough seas will accompany these winds Sun through early 
next week. Looking ahead, another strong cold front will lead to
strong to potentially near-gale force winds and very rough seas 
across the Gulf of Mexico early next week.
