Synopsis for the Gulf of America
349 PM EDT Thu Mar 19 2026
.SYNOPSIS...The pressure gradient between a ridge across the Gulf
region and a weakening stationary front over the NW Caribbean Sea
will continue to support fresh to locally strong NE winds and
moderate to rough seas over the SE Gulf, including the Straits of
Florida, through Fri. Moderate to fresh NE winds are expected
nightly, through the forecast period, across the eastern Bay of
Campeche due to local effects associated with a thermal trough.
Elsewhere, gentle to moderate winds and slight to moderate seas
will prevail through early next week.
