Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A broad area of low pressure over the eastern Gulf
of Mexico is producing a large area of disorganized showers and
thunderstorms. This system is expected to move northeastward
across Florida during the next day or so and move offshore of
the U.S. Southeast coast later this week. Environmental
conditions are expected to be generally unfavorable, although
some slow development is possible when the system is offshore of
the U.S. Southeast coast. Fresh to locally strong southerly
winds are expected through tonight over the SE Gulf on the SE
side of this system. Hazy conditions, due to agricultural fires
over Mexico, will continue to affect the western Gulf reducing
visibility to around 3 nm at times, during the next couple of
days.
