Synopsis for the Gulf of America
1052 PM EDT Wed Apr 2 2025
.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong S to SE winds and rough seas of 8 to
12 ft are expected across the central and western Gulf of America
west of 87W through Sat, as a strong pressure gradient prevails
between high pressure over the central Atlantic and complex low
pressure systems in the central United States. Winds may pulse to
near-gale force in this region each late night through the morning
hours into Sat. East of 87W including through the Florida
Straits, moderate to fresh SE winds are expected through Sat, with
pulsing strong winds possible through the Florida Straits.
Looking ahead, a cold front associated with the complex storm
systems in the central United States will enter the northwestern
Gulf Sat night, leading to fresh to strong N winds and rough seas
in the wake of the front Sun into early next week. Winds may
approach gale force offshore of Veracruz Sun morning. Looking
ahead, the cold front will slowly progress through the basin early
next week, and winds and seas will slowly diminish behind the
front.
