Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure will dominate into early next week. A
broad area of low pressure is likely to form by the early to
middle part of next week over the northwestern Caribbean Sea and
the adjacent portions of Central America. Thereafter, gradual
development of this system is possible, and a tropical
depression could form as the system moves slowly to the north or
northwest over the northwestern Caribbean Sea and across the
Gulf of Mexico through the end of next week. There is a medium
chance of tropical cyclone formation in the next seven days.
Regardless of development, winds and seas will start increasing
across the SE Gulf early next week.
