Synopsis for the Gulf of America
526 PM EDT Wed Jun 3 2026
.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends northwestward from the Everglades
National Park, Florida to near New Orleans, Louisiana. This front
should begin to stall later this evening. A trough of low pressure
is also seen farther south across the central Gulf, which is
expected to track north-northwestward through Fri. Interaction
between this trough and the front is going to sustain fresh to
strong ENE to SE winds with moderate to rough seas across the
central and eastern Gulf, north of 25N through Fri evening. In
addition, a persistent upper-level trough across the western Gulf
will continue to enhance sporadic heavy showers and strong
thunderstorms near the aforementioned trough and front through Fri
night. Gusty winds with low visibility and frequent lightning
will accompany the strong thunderstorms. After the low moves into
Louisiana and the stationary front dissipates on Sat, the
Atlantic Ridge should build westward across northern Florida into
the Gulf, bringing moderate to locally fresh SE winds and moderate
seas back to the entire Gulf.
