Region 2

Elevated Winds and Seas for the Gulf of Mexico through Wednesday
A cold front is moving through the western and central Gulf of Mexico this morning. Ahead of the front, winds will be southeasterly at 10-15 knots.

Region 3

A Look Ahead
As a potent upper level disturbance ejects out of the Four Corners region and tracks into the Central Plains on Saturday the associated surface low will slowly track eastward from the High Plains to the Central Plains. On the northern periphery of the low, ample cold air and moisture will be in place resulting in an increase in coverage of light to moderate snow beginning from west to east across the High Plains and into the Central Plains. As the low moves northeastward and intensifies Sunday and Monday, wintry precipitation is forecast from the Central Plains into the Great Lakes. At this time, model guidance suggests several inches of snow will be possible with some freezing rain and sleet as well.
