Synopsis for the Gulf of America
416 AM EDT Mon Jun 16 2025

.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong E to NE winds will pulse each
afternoon and evening through the week 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 Fri
night. Gentle to locally moderate SE winds and slight seas are
forecast to prevail across the eastern half of the basin.
