Individual waves may be more than twice the significant wave height. GMZ001-010315- Synopsis for the Gulf of America 1001 AM EST Sun Nov 30 2025 .SYNOPSIS...High pressure over the Carolinas continues to support fresh E winds across the southeast Gulf and Florida Straits, with rough seas over the Florida Straits. These winds and seas will diminish later this morning, as the high pressure shifts eastward ahead of a cold front that has entered the northwest Gulf. The front is forecast to stall Mon night into Tue, when a low pressure will form off Texas and move northeastward across the southeast U.S. into the northwest Atlantic. Thereafter, the front will move southeastward farther into the basin, but then stall again over the central Gulf through mid-week, as another low forms over South Texas. Looking ahead, expect fresh southerly flow over the western Gulf as the low pressure moves northeastward. $$ GMZ040-010315- NW Gulf of America including Stetson Bank- 1001 AM EST Sun Nov 30 2025 .TODAY...S winds 10 to 15 kt in the afternoon.
