1129 AM EDT Sun Jun 16 2024

...Please refer to Coastal Waters Forecasts (CWF) available
through NOAA Weather Radio and other means for detailed
Coastal Waters Forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...A broad low to middle level cyclonic circulation, a
Central American Gyre, is currently over southern Mexico and
Central America. The gyre center is expected to persist through
the middle of this week, while shifting WNW to NW into the SW
Gulf of Mexico. A broad area of low pressure is forecast to form
from this system over the southwestern Gulf of Mexico in a day
or two. Environmental conditions appear conducive for gradual
development of this system, and a tropical depression could form
by midweek while it moves slowly westward or west-northwestward.
Active convection across the southeast Gulf, along with
increasing winds to gale-force and rough seas, is expected to
shift westward with this system Mon evening through the middle
part of the week, impacting the south-central and northwest
Gulf.
