Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

1113 AM EDT Sat Nov 2 2024



.SYNOPSIS...A broad high pressure ridge extends from the western

Atlantic into the SE U.S. The pressure gradient between this

ridge and a trough across southern Mexico and the northern

portion of Central America will support moderate to fresh winds

and moderate seas across most of the Gulf region through the

weekend. Fresh to strong E winds will develop in the Straits of

Florida late Sun, and continue through the middle of next week.

Winds across the western part of the basin will begin to veer SE

early Sun into early next week as a cold front slowly approaches

E Texas.
