Synopsis for the Gulf of America
515 AM EDT Tue Jul 15 2025

.SYNOPSIS...Weak high pressure has shifted into the N-central
Gulf overnight, and extends a narrow ridge southeastward to the
Yucatan Channel. The high pressure will drift slowly W-NW and
settle across the NW Gulf through Thu. A 1014 mb low pressure is
just offshore of central Florida near 29N79.5W and is forecast to
move westward across Florida later today and tonight, and
eventually emerge over the northeastern Gulf late Tue or early
Wed. Environmental conditions appear generally favorable for
additional development, and a tropical depression could form by
the middle to latter part of this week as this system moves across
the northeastern and north-central Gulf. Regardless, scattered to
numerous showers and thunderstorms, some with strong gusty winds,
will accompany this system.
