Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
1044 PM EDT Sat Jun 22 2024

.SYNOPSIS...A broad area of low pressure over the southwestern
Gulf of Mexico is producing poorly organized shower and
thunderstorm activity. Gradual development of this system is
possible, and a tropical depression could form before the system
reaches the coast of northeastern Mexico Sunday night. Regardless
of development, heavy rainfall is likely to cause localized
flooding across portions of northeastern Mexico and Deep South
Texas through the end of the weekend. Strong to near-
gale winds are noted with the low. Moderate to
fresh winds and moderate seas prevail E of 90W and will diminish
to gentle to moderate and slight seas tonight and to light to
gentle speeds on Sun through Wed. Conditions are forecast to
improve W of 90W Sun afternoon into Mon as the low pressure system
moves inland across Mexico. Weak high pressure will reside over
the E central Gulf Tue and Wed.
