 A strong cold front will sweep through the waters starting around
 daylight today. In the wake of this front, northerly winds will
 increase to 20 to 25 knots and seas will rise to 5 to 7 feet in the
 open Gulf waters. Given the strong winds and rough seas expected in
 all of the waters, a small craft advisory is in effect this morning
 into tomorrow. Sunday will see continued rough conditions for
 boaters as winds turn easterly, but remain near 20 knots through the
 day. The winds will finally begin to ease on Monday as high pressure
 strengthens over the area with southeast winds of 10 to 15 knots
 expected. These winds will continue through the middle of next week.
 Seas will also improve to 3 to 5 feet as winds decrease.
