stationary front extends to the south. Moderate to fresh
southerly winds over the western and central Gulf will diminish
later today. A cold front will enter the NW waters this afternoon
and fresh to strong N winds are expected in its wake. The front
will extend from SE Louisiana to near Tampico, Mexico Fri
