.SYNOPSIS...
.SHORT RANGE...THE LATEST SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS THE PANHANDLE

THIS 970MB LOW WILL CONTINUE TO DRIFT NORTH THROUGH THE AFTERNOON
BEFORE DRIFTING NW TONIGHT. THE LOW WILL BEGIN TO FILL THROUGH

WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE TO STORMS FORCE OVER THE OFFSHORE
WATERS THIS AFTERNOON THEN SPREAD INTO THE NORTHERN GULF TONIGHT.
THE EASTERN GULF WILL SEE THE WINDS INCREASE TO MAX GALES THIS
EVENING. THE WINDS WILL DIMINISH FROM SOUTH TO NORTH FROM EARLY
SUN MORNING THROUGH THROUGH THE AFTERNOON WITH THE LAST PLACE TO
