Coastal Waters Forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to locally strong NE to NW winds occurring
from the southwestern through eastern Gulf of Mexico will slowly
diminish through tonight, in the wake of a cold front in the
northwestern Caribbean. Very rough seas associated with these
winds will subside Thu morning. The next cold front, associated
with low pressure moving through the southern United States, will
enter the northwestern Gulf Thu morning, promoting moderate to
fresh N to NE winds across much of the basin. Looking ahead,
moderate to fresh NE to SE winds are expected across the basin
this weekend as high pressure builds in the south-central United
States. Locally strong SE winds and rough seas will be possible
offshore of Texas late Sat into Sun.
