Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
350 AM EDT Thu Jun 13 2024

.SYNOPSIS...A trough extends southwestward from an elongated area
of weak low pressure near the east coast of Florida to near
Sarasota, Florida and to the northern Yucatan Peninsula. Scattered
to numerous showers and thunderstorms are southeast of the trough
impacting most of the southeastern Gulf waters and waters just
offshore the northern Yucatan Peninsula. The trough is expected to
gradually weaken through late Fri while the low pressure moves
northeastward to offshore of the southeastern U.S. Looking ahead,
a broad area of low pressure is forecast to form over the
southwestern Gulf of Mexico this weekend. Environmental conditions
appear conducive for gradual development of this system and a
tropical depression could form during the early or middle part of
next week while it moves slowly westward or west-northwestward.
Increasing winds and building seas are expected with this system.
