Synopsis for the Gulf of America
1020 AM EST Mon Feb 2 2026
.SYNOPSIS...High pressure located over the NW Gulf dominates the
basin supporting moderate to fresh N winds over the eastern Gulf,
moderate to fresh easterly winds in the Bay of Campeche, and
gentle to moderate winds elsewhere. The highest seas of 8 ft are
found in the vicinity of the Yucatan Channel. The high pressure
will move toward the NE Gulf tonight allowing a fresh to strong
southerly return flow to develop over the western Gulf. These winds
will persist through late Tue. The next cold front will enter the
NW Gulf by early Wed morning, then sweep southward across the Gulf
region through Thu evening. Fresh to strong northerly winds and
rough seas will follow the front.
