 Gale Warning
   GMZ001-251515-  Synopsis for the Gulf of America  1014 PM EST Sat Jan 24 2026      .SYNOPSIS...A stationary front extends from N-central Florida  westward across the outer waters of the Florida Big Bend to  coastal Mississippi, then transitions to a warm front  southwestward across SE Louisiana to 1009 mb low pressure offshore  of central Texas near 28N95W with a cold front then extending  S-SW to the Mexican coast along 24N. The low pressure will deepen  as it tracks NE into Louisiana by early Sun pulling the warm front  N of the area. The cold front will move SE across the entire  basin Sun through Mon evening. Strong reinforcing arctic high  pressure behind the front is expected to produce near gale force  winds across NW portions of the Gulf Sun and Sun night, gale force  winds over the offshore waters of Tampico Sun night into Mon  morning, and gales over the waters offshore Veracruz Mon and Mon  night. Seas are expected to quickly build across the basin  starting Sun. Conditions will improve quickly from NW to SE Tue  through Wed as the front moves SE into the NW Caribbean and high  pressure builds across the region. Mariners are advised to keep  alert with the latest forecasts.    $$
