Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...Surface ridging continue to dominates the Gulf
waters, and a weak pressure gradient support gentle to moderate
E to SE across the western half of the basin and light to gentle
winds elsewhere. The pressure gradient between the ridge and
lower pressures in Texas and Mexico will tighten, and fresh to
strong pulsing winds in the western half of the Gulf will
develop tonight into the weekend. Moderate or weaker winds will
prevail in the eastern half of the basin. Winds will pulse to
strong speeds nightly near and to the NW of the Yucatan
Peninsula due to local effects induced by a thermal trough.
