DISCUSSION
A BROAD AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE NORTHERN GULF WILL
KEEP A PERSISTENT LIGHT ONSHORE FLOW OF 5 TO 10 KNOTS IN PLACE
THROUGH TUESDAY. THESE LIGHT WINDS WILL ALLOW SEAS TO REMAIN CALM AT
2 FEET OR LESS THROUGH TUESDAY. A WEAK FRONT WILL SLIP THROUGH THE
WATERS TUESDAY NIGHT, AND THIS WILL ALLOW WINDS TO TURN OFFSHORE AT
5 TO 10 KNOTS FOR A BRIEF PERIOD. BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, WINDS WILL
TURN BACK TO THE SOUTHEAST AS A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE BEGINS TO
FORM OVER THE CENTRAL GULF. THIS LOW WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE TOWARD
THE AREA ON THURSDAY AND WINDS WILL INCREASE TO 10 TO 15 KNOTS FROM
THE SOUTHEAST AS THE LOW STRENGTHENS. SEAS WILL ALSO INCREASE TO
2 TO 4 FEET AS THESE WINDS DEVELOP.
