Synopsis for the Gulf of America
1036 PM EDT Wed Oct 8 2025

.SYNOPSIS...Disorganized showers and thunderstorms continue across
the SW Gulf associated with a low level trough moving westward
across the Bay of Campeche and into coastal Mexico tonight. Winds
and seas across the Mexican waters from Veracruz to Cabo Rojo will
slowly subside during the next several hours as the trough shifts
westward and further inland. Elsewhere, a building high pressure
ridge north of the Gulf will promote fresh to strong NE winds over
the NE Gulf from Thu night through early Sat. Looking ahead,
winds and seas across the entire Gulf should be quiescent from Sun
through early next week.
