.SYNOPSIS...

Light to moderate westerly to southwesterly breezes continue
across the northeastern Gulf thanks to high pressure anchored in
the Atlantic. A weakening cold front moving into the waters
tonight and Thursday will increase west to northwest breezes
temporarily. A weak area of low pressure may develop along the
tail end of the remnant front over the northeastern Gulf Friday
or Saturday. Otherwise, late night and early morning
thunderstorms are expected the next several days; they`ll come
with gusty winds, lightning, and the potential for waterspouts.
