Southeast Gulf of America

.SYNOPSIS...A 1019 mb high pressure centered over the NE Gulf of
America will slide eastward across Florida and into the W
Atlantic by Thu. Moderate to fresh southerly return flow will
set up over the western basin today, then weaken Thu as a front
approaches SE Texas. Southerly winds will then increase to fresh
to strong speeds across most of the basin Fri, then to strong

NW portion early Sat, and quickly weaken, reaching from the
Florida Panhandle to just S of Veracruz, Mexico by Sun morning.
A reinforcing push may advance the front out of the basin late
Sun night.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from near 31N58W to the north
coast of the Dominican Republic. Gale force SW wind and rough
continue along the front north of 27N, while strong NW to W
winds and very rough seas prevail behind the front north of 25N.
Strong thunderstorms are north of 21N within 180 nm ahead of the
front. The front will reach from 31N54W to near Puerto Rico this
evening with gale force winds diminishing south of 31N. The
southern portion of the front will then become stationary across
the coastal waters of Puerto Rico by Fri morning then dissipate.
Large NW to W swell behind the front will shift eastward through
Thu. Winds and seas will diminish and subside from west to east
through Fri as high pressure builds over the western Atlantic in
the wake of the front. Winds are forecast to increase north of 22N
this weekend as the pressure gradient tightens. These winds will
support building seas across most of the basin.
