Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
941 PM EDT Wed Jun 5 2024

.SYNOPSIS...A weak Atlantic ridge extends SW into the NE Gulf,
and will dominate the basin through the next several days. This
pattern will support generally moderate to locally fresh SE to S
winds in the western Gulf, fresh to occasionally strong near the
Yucatan Peninsula, and gentle to moderate winds in the eastern
Gulf through early Fri. On Fri, the ridge will weaken, allowing
for winds to diminish somewhat into the weekend. Hazy conditions
due to agricultural fires over Central America and Mexico will
continue for the next couple of days, reducing visibility to
around 1 to 3 nm at times, mainly over the southwestern half of
the Gulf.
