 .SYNOPSIS...High pressure is centered over Bermuda with the
 western periphery of this ridge extending west into Florida and
 the Gulf. This will continue to promote moderate to fresh breezes
 today and tonight. Slight weakening of the high Sunday into early
 next week will result in modest slackening to gentle to moderate
 breezes, though, moderate to fresh breezes are expected to
 continue across the Straits. As the high retreats into Atlantic
 next week, breezes will shift to the east to southeast.
