Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
417 AM EDT Tue May 7 2024

.SYNOPSIS...Low pressure extending from north-central Mexico
into the southern U.S. plains will continue to draw in mainly
fresh SE winds across much of the Gulf into Thu night. Locally
strong winds are likely to pulse nightly through late week off
the northern and western Yucatan Peninsula. Haze due to
agricultural fires in southeastern Mexico is evident in the SW and
west-central Gulf. Looking ahead, a weak cold front will move off
the Texas coast into the northwest Gulf Thu night, shift
southeast, then slow down and weaken further as extends from South
Florida to Veracruz, Mexico, by late Sat.
