SYNOPSIS
A WEAK BOUNDARY ACROSS THE NORTHERN ZONES WILL WASH

MODERATE WINDS WILL PREVAIL ELSEWHERE. WINDS WILL WEAKEN ACROSS
THE BASIN THU AS THE NEXT FRONT APPROACHES. THE FRONT WILL REACH
ACROSS THE WESTERN ZONES THU NIGHT, FROM THE WESTERN FLORIDA
PANHANDLE TO VERACRUZ, MEXICO BY EARLY FRI, THEN FROM THE CENTRAL
FLORIDA PANHANDLE TO THE EASTERN BAY OF CAMPECHE BY EARLY SAT.
SMOKE FROM AGRICULTURAL FIRES IN SOUTHEASTERN MEXICO IS CREATING
