Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
1017 PM EST Sun Nov 24 2024

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure will prevail across the Gulf waters
through the middle of the week. Moderate to fresh southerly
winds will persist over the western Gulf through Mon before
diminishing briefly. A weak cold front will move off the coast
of Texas Mon night into Tue, extend along the northern Gulf
through Wed, then lift N ahead of another cold front forecast to
enter the Gulf waters late on Thu. Moderate to fresh southerly
winds will once again develop over the western Gulf on Wed ahead
of the second front, which will reach from N Florida to near
Tampico, Mexico Fri morning, and from the Straits of Florida to
near Veracruz, Mexico Fri night. The front will exit the basin
on Sat. Fresh to strong northerly winds and building seas will
follow this front. Winds may briefly reach minimal gale force
near the Veracruz area on Fri.
