.SYNOPSIS...Fairly weak high pressure will dominate the basin
through the period, supporting mostly gentle to moderate breezes
and slight to moderate seas. Scattered showers and thunderstorms
are expected to increase along and just inland the NE Gulf coast
this weekend as a weakening cold front stalls across northern
Florida. This activity may spread out over some portions of the NE
Gulf.
