Synopsis for the Gulf of America
953 AM EST Mon Dec 29 2025
.SYNOPSIS...A strong cold front in the northern Gulf will sweep
over the basin through late Tue. Gale force winds and very rough
seas will occur over the northwestern basin through early this
afternoon, and severe gales are expected to develop offshore of
Tampico this afternoon, and offshore of Veracruz this evening.
Very rough seas, peaking near 20 ft, will accompany these winds.
Gales and significant rough seas will continue over the western
Bay of Campeche through late Tue night. Elsewhere behind the
front, widespread strong to near-gale force winds and rough seas
are expected, with winds and seas slowly diminishing from north to
south Tue into early Wed. High pressure will build over the
northern Gulf around midweek, supporting moderate or weaker winds
and slight seas over the basin.
