Synopsis for the Gulf of America
1032 PM EDT Mon Oct 6 2025

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure across the eastern U.S. will build
modestly across the Gulf basin throughout the week. Moderate E
to SE winds and slight to moderate seas will prevail through
late Tue, becoming moderate NE to E through the remainder of the
week. Occasional locally fresh winds are expected in the
northeastern Gulf. A trough of low pressure currently moving
westward across the Yucatan Peninsula is expected to emerge into
the Bay of Campeche during the day on Tuesday. The system is
producing a large area of showers and thunderstorms, and some
slow development of this system is possible over the Bay of
Campeche before it moves inland across Mexico by the middle
of this week. Regardless of development, areas of heavy rain and
strong gusty winds are likely across the waters N of the Yucatan
Peninsula and the SW Gulf during the next few days.
