Synopsis for the Gulf of America
1053 PM EDT Sat Aug 30 2025

.SYNOPSIS...A weak stationary front extends from the Florida Big
Bend area to the SE Louisiana coast. The front will sag south
tonight into Mon, then meander over the north-central and
northeast Gulf through early next week, bringing showers and
isolated thunderstorms to the area. The stronger thunderstorms
will induce locally hazardous winds and seas. Elsewhere, the weak
gradient in place will maintain mainly gentle to moderate winds
and slight to locally moderate seas through the period.
