Synopsis for the Gulf of America
451 AM EDT Sat Aug 29 2026
.SYNOPSIS...A weak area of low pressure over the northern Gulf
waters is producing scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms.
These storms may produce gusty winds and higher seas. This system
is expected to remain nearly stationary over the next several
days. The low pressure has a low chance of tropical development
over the next 48 hours and 7 days. Elsewhere, a weak pressure
gradient will support moderate or lighter winds and slight seas
over much of the basin through the middle of next week. Winds will
pulse to fresh with moderate seas off western Yucatan during the
evenings due to a diurnal surface trough moving west off the
peninsula each night.
