Synopsis for the Gulf of America
400 AM EDT Wed Sep 3 2025

.SYNOPSIS...A nearly stationary front extending from south
Florida to south Texas will gradually weaken today, becoming a
frontal trough and likely persisting over the east-central Gulf
through Fri. This system will continue to generate scattered to
numerous showers and isolated thunderstorms, mainly across the
northern half of the basin. Elsewhere, a weak pressure gradient in
place will maintain gentle to moderate winds with slight to
locally moderate seas through the forecast period.
