.SYNOPSIS...A weak pressure gradient will generally maintain

gentle to moderate southeast to south winds across the basin,

except for light to gentle variable winds over the NE Gulf

through Fri. Moderate seas will be over the western Gulf while

mostly slight seas will be elsewhere through Fri. A diurnal

trough will pulse fresh to strong winds off the Yucatan

Peninsula during the evenings and at night through Fri. A weak

cold front will move into the far northern Gulf Thu and stall

Thu night into Fri. A strong late-season cold front will emerge

off the Texas coast late Fri night. The front will reach from

northern Florida to the Bay of Campeche by late on Sat, then

from central Florida to the Yucatan peninsula on Sun before

stalling over the SE Gulf Mon. The front will be followed by

fresh to strong north to northeast winds, with winds reaching

gale-force offshore Tampico and Veracruz on Sat. Seas are

forecast to build to around 12 ft, but possibly higher over

waters affected by the gale conditions before subsiding Sun and

Sun night. Scattered showers and thunderstorms, some possibly

strong, are expected to precede the front.
