Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A surface trough extends from the NE Gulf to the
eastern Bay of Campeche this afternoon. A broad low to middle
level cyclonic circulation, a Central American Gyre, has
developed across Central America and southern Mexico.
Environmental conditions appear conducive for a tropical cyclone
to develop from this broad area of low pressure, and a tropical
depression could form over the southwestern Gulf during the
middle part of next week, then move west or west- northwestward.
Active convection across the southeast Gulf, along with
increasing winds and building seas, is expected to shift
westward with this system into the middle part of next week,
impacting the south-central and northwest Gulf.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...Scattered showers and thunderstorms persist east of
a trough reaching from 31N72W to north-central Florida. The
trough will shift eastward and exit the region through early
next  week, with active convection continuing ahead of it.

into Florida through late  Thu.
