Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A trough extends from central Florida to the Yucatan
Peninsula. The trough will gradually weaken through late today.
A Central American Gyre is forecast to develop over the next
couple of days. Environmental conditions appear conducive for a
tropical cyclone to develop from this broad area of low
pressure, and a tropical depression could form over the
southwestern Gulf during the early or middle part of next week.
Active convection, along with increasing winds and building seas
are expected with this system.
