Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
349 AM EST Thu Nov 21 2024

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front sweeping across the basin has reached the
Upper Florida Keys to far western Cuba and will shift SE and exit
the basin by sunrise. Minimal NW gale winds offshore Veracruz 
will diminish below gale-force by sunrise. Fresh to strong N winds
and building seas are expected elsewhere behind the front. High 
pressure will build in the wake of the front with marine 
conditions gradually improving from W to E through the end of the 
week. The high pressure will shift to the NE Gulf early Sun when 
gentle to moderate SE to S winds are expected over the eastern 
Gulf, and moderate to locally fresh SE to S return flow develops 
over the western Gulf.
