Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
447 PM EDT Mon May 6 2024

.SYNOPSIS...Low pressure extending from north-central Mexico into
the southern U.S. plains will continue to draw in mainly fresh SE
winds across much of the Gulf into Thu night. Locally strong
winds will pulse nightly Tue through late week off the northern
and western Yucatan Peninsula. Haze due to agricultural fires in
southeastern Mexico is evident in the SW and west-central Gulf.
Looking ahead, a weak cold front will move off the Texas coast
into the northwest Gulf Thu night, shift southeast, then slow down
and weaken further as extends from Tampa to Tampico by late Sat.
