An area of strong to gale- force winds, and rough to very rough seas, peaking near 14 ft, will prevail north of the low, impacting the waters mainly north of about 28N and east of 60W through today. Elsewhere, a cold front extends from 31N69W to the NW Bahamas then stationary to the Florida Straits.
