You would forecast that the winds will decrease. The isobars represent the pressure of the area. Since you are located in between the area of closely spaced isobars with the center just to your east and the spacing increases away from you, it would mean is decreasing away to towards you. Plus the fact that the direction of the wind is from west to east.
