.SYNOPSIS...Moderate to locally fresh S to SE winds will occur

gradient strengthens between a cold front moving through the NW
Gulf and building high pressure over the western Atlantic. Winds
may pulse to strong speeds in the central Gulf. Winds will turn
to the NW to NE behind the aforementioned cold front, with fresh
to locally strong winds possible today as the front moves
southeastward. The front will stall then dissipate this weekend,
and ridging will build over the basin, supporting gentle to
moderate winds and slight to moderate seas across the Gulf this
weekend into early next week.
