.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from the Florida Big Bend SW to
the central Gulf near 27N87W to 26N87W where it transitions to a
stationary front that continues to Tampico, Mexico. Showers and
thunderstorms are expected to continue across the eastern Gulf
tonight in association with a pre-frontal trough. The front will
lift as a warm front over the western half of the basin tonight
into Thu while it stalls E of 90W. This will shift the focus of
heavy rain and thunderstorms to the NW Gulf on Thu through the
weekend. Elsewhere, moderate to fresh return flow will dominate
the area. Winds will slightly weaken Sun into early next week as
the gradient relaxes. Meanwhile, haze due to agricultural fires
in Mexico continues across most of the western Gulf.
