GMZ001-020300- Synopsis for the Gulf of America 958 AM EST Mon Dec 1 2025 .SYNOPSIS...A stationary front extends from near Tampa Bay, FL to the NW Gulf, then southward to near Tampico, Mexico. Fresh to occasionally strong N to NE winds and seas to 8 ft follow the front. These winds and seas will diminish later today. Low pressure may develop along the frontal boundary in the NW Gulf today into tonight before the system lifts quickly northeastward, resulting in fresh to strong N winds and locally rough seas behind the boundary. Winds and seas will diminish late Tue. Thereafter, the front will move southeastward farther into the basin, but then stall over the south-central Gulf through mid-week, as another low forms over South Texas. Looking ahead, another cold front will enter the western waters late Thu, reaching from SE Louisiana to near Poza Rica, Mexico Fri morning. $$ GMZ040-020300- NW Gulf of America including Stetson Bank- 958 AM EST Mon Dec 1 2025 .TODAY...S to SW winds 10 to 15 kt in the afternoon.
