strong near the northern Yucatan and the western Gulf in the

evenings, and slightly weaker winds overall in the northeastern

Gulf. Seas will be slight to moderate through Wed. A cold front

may impact the northwestern Gulf beginning Wed night, before

moving across the basin through Fri night with winds increasing

to fresh to strong speeds and seas building to 9 ft behind it. A

brief period of gale force winds may be possible offshore of

Veracruz early on Thu.

 the Windward passage at times. Rough seas will prevail within

these winds and east of the central and southeast Bahamas

through  Tue. Moderate or weaker winds can be expected elsewhere

across the region. Southerly fresh to strong winds may develop

off northern  Florida Wed night ahead of a potential cold front.
