Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
1043 AM EDT Sat May 25 2024

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure over the region will begin to shift
east-southeastward starting Sun. Moderate to fresh southeast
winds over the western Gulf, and gentle to moderate southeast to
south winds elsewhere are expected to continue through the rest of
the weekend, except for winds becoming light and variable over
most of the eastern Gulf through early next week. A cold front
will move across the NE Gulf Tue through Wed, followed by gentle
to moderate west to northwest winds. Fresh to strong winds will
pulse near the northern and western Yucatan Peninsula during the
late afternoons and at night through the period. Hazy conditions
due to agricultural fires in Mexico continue across most of the
western Gulf and Bay of Campeche.
