Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
307 PM EST Wed Dec 11 2024
.SYNOPSIS... A Gale Warning remains in effect for the SW Gulf of
Mexico. A potent cold front extending from near Tampa Bay, Florida
to the Yucatan Peninsula will exit the Gulf region this evening.
Strong gale force winds of 35 to 45 kt and very rough seas in the
12 to 18 ft range are noted in the wake of the front. These hazardous
marine conditions will gradually diminish from W to E tonight into
Thu, then high pressure settling into the northern Gulf will bring
more tranquil weather for the end of the week, and into the weekend.
However, fresh to strong NE to E winds and rough seas will persist
over the SE Gulf and the Straits of Florida through Sat as the high
pressure strengthens while moving towards the NE of the United
States.
