Synopsis for the Gulf of America
221 PM EDT Tue Jun 17 2025

.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to locally strong NE to E winds will pulse each
afternoon and evening through the next several days north of the
Yucatan Peninsula and in the eastern Bay of Campeche as a diurnal
trough develops and tracks westward across the region. Otherwise,
surface ridging extending across most of the basin from the
western Atlantic will maintain moderate to fresh S to SE winds and
moderate seas over the central and western Gulf through Sat
night. Gentle to locally moderate SE winds and slight seas are
forecast to prevail across the eastern half of the basin.
