.SYNOPSIS...The pressure gradient between high pressure over the
eastern Gulf and relatively lower pressure in Texas and eastern
Mexico will maintain moderate to fresh SE winds and moderate seas
across the western Gulf through Tue. Pulsing fresh to strong E 
winds are likely each afternoon and evening through Tue night, 
north of the Yucatan Peninsula as a trough develops daily and 
drifts westward. Smoke from agricultural fires in southeastern 
Mexico will sustain hazy conditions at the west-central and 
southwestern Gulf most likely through the period.
