Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
334 PM EDT Sat May 25 2024

.SYNOPSIS...A relatively weak high pressure ridge will continue
to extend from the western Atlantic across the northern Gulf
into the upcoming week. This will maintain a weak pressure
pattern over the basin. Mostly moderate to fresh southeast to
south winds will exist W of 87W through early Mon while light to
gentle southeast to south winds will exist E of 87W. The winds
W of 87W will shift to W of 90W afterwards while winds east of
87W generally become light and variable, except S of 26N where
gentle they become gentle northeast winds. Seas will be slight to
moderate during the period. A cold front is expected to move
across the NE Gulf Tue through Wed, followed by gentle to moderate
west to northwest winds. Fresh to strong winds will pulse near
the northern and western Yucatan Peninsula during the late
afternoons and at night through the period. Hazy conditions due to
agricultural fires in Mexico continue across most of the western
Gulf and Bay of Campeche.
