Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
944 AM EDT Sun Sep 22 2024

.SYNOPSIS...A broad area of low pressure is over the NW Caribbean
Sea and adjacent parts of Central America. Environmental
conditions appear favorable for gradual development of this system
during the next several days. A tropical depression is likely to
form while the system moves slowly northward across the
northwestern Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico through the end of
the week. There is a high chance of tropical cyclone formation in
the next seven days. Regardless of development, winds and seas
will start increasing across the SE Gulf early this week.
