Synopsis for the Gulf of America
446 AM EDT Fri Oct 10 2025

.SYNOPSIS...The pressure gradient between a strong high pressure
over the Mississippi Valley and a frontal trough in the SE Gulf
and a surface trough in the Bay of Campeche result in moderate to
fresh NE-E winds over much of the basin. Strong winds and rough
seas are found in the NE Gulf and this will continue into Sat.
Conditions will improve late Sat and especially Sun as a non-
tropical low pressure lifts north over the W Atlantic and ridging
builds across the Gulf. The ridge will sustain mainly a gentle to
moderate anticyclonic flow and moderate seas into early next week.
