Individual waves may be more than twice the significant wave height. GMZ001-160915- Synopsis for the Gulf of America 510 PM EDT Tue Jul 15 2025 .SYNOPSIS...Weak high pressure across the north-central Gulf extends a narrow ridge southeastward to the Yucatan Channel. The high pressure will drift slowly W-NW and settle across the NW Gulf through Thu. A weak 1013 mb low pressure, Invest AL93, is just offshore of northeast Florida near Saint Augustine. It is forecast to move inland northern Florida tonight and reach the NE Gulf on Wed, at which time environmental conditions appear generally favorable for additional development, and a tropical depression could form while the system moves across the NE and north-central Gulf and approaches the coast of Louisiana on Thu. Regardless, scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms, some with strong gusty winds along with locally rough seas, will accompany this system. $$ GMZ040-160915- NW Gulf of America including Stetson Bank- 510 PM EDT Tue Jul 15 2025 .TONIGHT...SE to S winds 10 to 15 kt.
