Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
448 PM EDT Mon Apr 29 2024

.SYNOPSIS...Surface ridging extending from the SW N Atlantic into
the eastern Gulf of Mexico is supporting moderate to occasionally
fresh E-SE winds E of 90W, except for strong winds over the
northern Yucatan Peninsula offshore waters. The high pressure and
associated ridge will weaken over the next few days, resulting in
diminishing winds and seas across the basin. Winds will pulse to
fresh to strong speeds near the Yucatan Peninsula and south-
central Gulf each evening through the forecast period.
