Southeast Gulf of America

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure across the western Atlantic will
maintain a modest ridge southwestward across the northern Gulf
through Thu. A cold front will sink southward across the

low pressure located along the western Yucatan Peninsula is
producing a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms
across southwest portions of the Gulf. This system is expected
to move westward, and some slow development is possible before
it moves inland over southern Mexico late Wednesday or early
Thursday. Regardless of development, showers and thunderstorms
and strong gusty winds are likely across the southwestern Gulf
through Thu.
