    Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
    1043 PM EST Thu Nov 30 2023

    .SYNOPSIS...Strong to near gale SE return flow will quickly weaken
    Fri as a cold front approaches the coast of Texas. The weak cold
    front should be located just offshore of the Texas coast Fri
    night, extend from Louisiana to Tampico by Sat night, reach from
    the Florida peninsula to the Bay of Campeche by Sun night, and
    finally move across the basin by Mon. Fresh to strong NW winds
    should occur along the W Gulf following the front Sat night
    through Mon. Looking ahead, quiescent conditions should prevail
    across most of the Gulf early next week.
