GMZ001-110845- Synopsis for the Gulf of America 437 PM EDT Fri Oct 10 2025 .SYNOPSIS...The pressure gradient between a strong high pressure over the Mississippi Valley and a trough in the SE Gulf is resulting in moderate to fresh NE to E winds over much of the basin. Strong winds and rough seas are found in the NE Gulf and this will continue into Sat. A cold front, associated with a developing low pressure locate offshore north-central Florida, will move across the SE Gulf this weekend, and dissipate by Mon. Marine conditions will gradually improve across the Gulf region late Sat and Sun, a high pressure builds across the basin in the wake of the front. The associated ridge will sustain mainly a gentle to moderate anticyclonic flow and moderate seas into early next week. $$ GMZ040-110845- NW Gulf of America including Stetson Bank- 437 PM EDT Fri Oct 10 2025 .TONIGHT...NE to E winds 10 to 15 kt.
