.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from the Florida panhandle to
near Poza Rica, Mexico. Fresh to strong N winds and moderate to
locally rough seas are noted in the wake of the front, forecast
to move southeastward farther into the basin, but then stall over
the south-central Gulf by late Wed, as another low forms over
South Texas and the NW Gulf. Looking ahead, another cold front
will enter the NW waters on Thu, reaching from SE Louisiana to
near Poza Rica, Mexico Fri morning, then stall and lift north
toward the northern Gulf on Sat.
