SYNOPSIS
A STATIONARY FRONT EXTENDING FROM THE WESTERN
FLORIDA PANHANDLE TO 28N91W AND TO THE CENTRAL TEXAS COAST WILL
LINGER THROUGH SAT MORNING BEFORE IT LIFTS BACK N AS A WARM
FRONT AHEAD OF A STRONG ARCTIC COLD FRONT SAT AFTERNOON. THE
COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO APPROACH THE TEXAS COAST EARLY ON SAT,
THEN STALL AS LOW PRESSURE THAT FORMS NEAR THE SOUTHERN TEXAS
COAST RIDES UP ALONG IT THROUGH SAT NIGHT. THIS WILL TEND TO
THEN DRAG THE FRONT SE ACROSS THE ENTIRE BASIN SUN THROUGH MON
EVENING. STRONG REINFORCING ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE BEHIND THE
FRONT IS EXPECTED TO PRODUCE NEAR GALE FORCE WINDS ACROSS NW
PORTIONS OF THE GULF SUN AND SUN NIGHT, AND POSSIBLE GALE
CONDITIONS OVER THE OFFSHORE WATERS OF TAMPICO SUN NIGHT INTO
MON, THEN OVER THE WATERS OFFSHORE VERACRUZ ON MON AND MON
NIGHT. THERE IS SOME POTENTIAL FOR WINDS IN THE NW GULF TO AT
TIMES REACH GALE FORCE ON SUN.
