Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
424 AM EDT Sun Jun 23 2024

.SYNOPSIS...A broad area of low pressure located over the
southwestern Gulf of Mexico about 150 miles east-northeast of
Tampico, Mexico, is producing disorganized showers and
thunderstorms. Gradual development of this system is possible, and
a short-lived tropical depression could form before it reaches
the coast of northeastern Mexico today. Regardless of
development, heavy rainfall is likely to cause localized flooding
across portions of northeastern Mexico and Deep South Texas during
the next day or so. Fresh to strong winds and rough seas 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 this evening
into Mon as the low pressure system moves inland across Mexico.
Weak high pressure will reside over the E central Gulf Tue and
Wed.
