SYNOPSIS
A STRONG COLD FRONT EXTENDS FROM 31N83.5W TO
19.5N96W. THE FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE SOUTHEASTWARD, AND
REACH FROM THE FLORIDA STRAITS TO THE YUCATAN PENINSULA BY EARLY
TUE MORNING. WIDESPREAD NEAR GALE-FORCE TO GALE-FORCE N WINDS
AND ROUGH SEAS ARE OCCURRING BEHIND THE FRONT. THESE WINDS WILL
CONTINUE TO PEAK AT GALE-FORCE OFF THE NW AND W GULF LATER THIS
AFTERNOON AND THROUGH THE EVENING. IN ADDITION, WINDS NEAR
VERACRUZ WILL REACH STORM FORCE FOR A BRIEF PERIOD. SEAS WILL
BUILD TO VERY ROUGH IN THE AREA OF THESE WINDS. AS THE FRONT
MOVES FARTHER SOUTHEASTWARD AWAY FROM THE GULF LATE TONIGHT
THROUGH TUE, CONDITIONS WILL GRADUALLY IMPROVE FROM NORTH TO
SOUTH. IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT, HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS
THE REGION AND PREVAIL THROUGH THE REST OF THE FORECAST PERIOD.
