Synopsis for the Gulf of America
353 PM EDT Fri Aug 14 2026
.SYNOPSIS...A high pressure center will remain over the north-
central Gulf this weekend, then moves SE while weakening some by
Mon. This pattern will produce mostly gentle to moderate E to SE
winds across the basin, with pulses of fresh winds occurring north
and west of the Yucatan Peninsula and into the Bay of Campeche
each evening and night, as a surface trough migrates from the
Yucatan Peninsula westward across the SW Gulf. Slight to moderate
seas are expected through the forecast period. Looking ahead, by
midweek next week winds may increase to fresh speeds over the NW
and west-central Gulf as the pressure gradient tightens between
the high pressure and lower pressures over north-central Mexico.
