.SYNOPSIS...A broad low to middle level cyclonic circulation,
also known as Central American Gyre, is currently over southern
Mexico and Central America. The gyre center is expected to
persist through the middle of this week, while shifting WNW to
NW into the SW Gulf of Mexico. A broad area of low pressure is
forecast to form from this system over the SW Gulf of Mexico on
Monday or Tuesday. Environmental conditions appear conducive for
subsequent gradual development of the low, and a tropical
depression or tropical storm could form by midweek while it
moves slowly W or W-NW. Heavy showers and tstsms across the SE
Gulf, along with increasing winds to gale-force and rough seas,
are expected to shift over the W Gulf with this system Mon
