Synopsis for the Gulf of America
1003 AM EST Sun Dec 7 2025
.SYNOPSIS...An old frontal boundary extending from the SW coast of
Florida to offshore of SE Texas has begun to drift northward as a
warm front. Scattered showers continue north of the boundary.
Moderate or lighter winds and slight to moderate seas prevail
across the basin through this evening as the front weakens and
drifts northward. A new cold front is expected to enter the NW
Gulf tonight and overtake the current front, while sweeping across
the basin through Tue. This will lead to fresh to strong N to NW
winds and building seas in the wake of this front. Gale- force NW
to N winds are expected to briefly occur off Veracruz Mon evening
through midnight. Winds and seas will diminish Tue into Wed as the
front stalls across the Yucatan Channel and Straits of Florida,
and high pressure settles across the central Gulf. Light to gentle
winds and slight seas will persist late Wed through the end of
next week.
