southeastern Gulf.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extending from east of Bermuda through
the central Bahamas and into the Florida Straits will slowly
drift southward through Fri, and high pressure is expected to
build in the wake of the front. A strengthening pressure gradient
between these features will support widespread moderate to fresh
NE winds and building seas across the northern Bahamas Fri into
Sun. Looking ahead, the high pressure will weaken allowing the
winds and seas to diminish through early next week off the east
coast of Florida and the northern Bahamas.
