Southeast Gulf of America

.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong E to NE winds and locally rough seas
will occur over the northern Gulf, mainly north of 25N, today into
early Sun as a strong pressure gradient prevails between high
pressure to the north and a low pressure system meandering near
the Bahamas and Florida peninsula. A warm front is expected to
develop in the central Gulf on Sun and lift northward into the
southeastern United States, supporting slowly diminishing winds
over the northern basin, and moderate E to SE winds and slight to
moderate seas over the rest of the Gulf into next week.

.TONIGHT...NE to E winds 15 to 25 kt. Seas 5 to 7 ft. Scattered
showers and isolated tstms.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong NE winds will occur off the coast of
Florida and over the northern Bahamas, generally north of 25N and
west of 70W, today into early next week as a weak area of low
pressure meanders near the Bahamas and Florida over the next
several days. There is a low chance of tropical development with
this system over the next 48 hours. Large N swell generated by
previous Tropical Cyclones Imelda and Humberto will continue to
expand southeastward this weekend, leading to widespread rough
seas north of 10N. Very rough seas in excess of 12 ft are expected
north of 23N this weekend, including near the northern Bahamas.
