Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
1106 AM EDT Tue Apr 30 2024

.SYNOPSIS...A ridge dominates the Gulf waters producing moderate
to locally fresh SE winds over the western Gulf, and mainly gentle
to moderate E to SE winds over the eastern part of the basin. The
pressure gradient between the ridge and lower pressures in Texas
and Mexico will support fresh to occasionally strong winds in
the western half of the Gulf Wed night into the weekend. Moderate
or weaker winds will prevail in the eastern half of the Gulf.
Winds will pulse to strong speeds nightly near and to the NW of
the Yucatan Peninsula due to local effects induced by a thermal
trough.
