Southeast Gulf of America



.SYNOPSIS...A dissipating stationary front extending from the

Tampa Bay area to 29N85W is expected to dissipate later today. A

1027 mb high pressure system over the SE United States will

support fresh to locally strong NE-E winds and moderate to rough

seas starting in the NE Gulf this afternoon, spreading over the

rest of the northern Gulf waters through Thu night. Conditions

will improve across the basin Fri into Sat, allowing for

moderate or weaker winds and slight to moderate seas during the

weekend. Meanwhile, a broad upper-level trough over the Bahamas

will move toward Florida over the next few days, increasing

shower and thunderstorm activity over the eastern and central

Gulf waters.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida



.SYNOPSIS...A weakening stationary front extending from near

Bermuda to Cocoa Beach, Florida will shift southward over the

next day or so and dissipate. The tight pressure gradient

between a 1027 mb high pressure over the SE United States and

the aforementioned front will result in fresh to locally strong

NE  winds and seas to build to rough N of the Bahamas and W of

70W today through Thu. Conditions will improve late Thu into

Fri, as broad ridging dominates the basin into the weekend.

Meanwhile, a broad upper-level trough over the SE Bahamas and

Hispaniola will support scattered showers and isolated

thunderstorms over much of the area over the next few days as the

system shifts northwestward.

20 kt N of 27N. Seas 3 to 5 ft.
