Individual waves may be more than twice the significant wave height. .SYNOPSIS...Relatively weak high pressure extends from the western Atlantic westward over the eastern and central Gulf. The high pressure will shift southeastward through Sun as a mostly dry cold front moves across the northern Gulf waters. Fresh to locally strong southeast to south winds are expected to develop offshore of Texas and eastern Mexico Sun night into Mon afternoon before becoming mostly fresh south to southwest winds across the central and western Gulf through late Mon night as another weak cold front moves off the Texas coast. The front will continue to weaken as it reaches from the NE Gulf to the central Gulf by Wed. A stronger cold front is forecast to move off the Texas coast late Tue night, and reach from the near the western Florida panhandle to the west-central Gulf by late Wed. Fresh northeast winds are expected behind this front. Otherwise, moderate to occasionally fresh northeast to east winds are expected each afternoon and evening in the Bay of Campeche and north of the Yucatan Peninsula as a diurnal trough develops and moves westward over the region. Moderate or weaker winds and slight to moderate seas are expected elsewhere through much of this weekend. Gulf of America N of 26N W of 87W .TONIGHT...S winds 10 kt.
