GMZ001-301530- Synopsis for the Gulf of America 1026 PM EST Sat Nov 29 2025 .SYNOPSIS...The gradient between high pressure centered mid- Atlantic coast of the U.S. and a stationary front southeast of the basin is supporting fresh to strong winds in the Florida Straits and far southeast Gulf. These winds will diminish Sun as the front dissipates. Fresh SE winds persist over the far western Gulf ahead of an approaching cold front over Texas. This front will move offshore Mon, stall Mon night into Tue, when a low pressure will form off Texas and move northeastward across the southeast U.S. into the northwest Atlantic. Thereafter, the front will move southeastward farther into the basin, but then stall into late week as another low forms over Texas. $$ GMZ040-301530- NW Gulf of America including Stetson Bank- 1026 PM EST Sat Nov 29 2025 .OVERNIGHT...SE to S winds 15 to 20 kt.
