Synopsis for the Gulf of America
1015 PM EDT Sat Oct 4 2025

.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong NE to E winds and rough seas are
expected north of 27N through Sun morning as a tight pressure
gradient persists between high pressure to the N and a stationary
front extending from the Straits of Florida to 1009 mb low
pressure near 27.5N92W. The front and low will lift northward on
Sun, allowing for winds and seas to slowly diminish over the
northern basin. Looking ahead, high pressure will begin to build
modestly across the entire Gulf basin by late Mon leading to
moderate E to SE winds and slight to moderate seas early next
week, with locally fresh winds possible in the northeastern Gulf.
