Synopsis for the Gulf of America
1007 AM EDT Wed Oct 8 2025

.SYNOPSIS...Disorganized showers and thunderstorms continue with
a trough of low pressure moving westward across the Bay of
Campeche. Some slow development of this system is possible before
it moves inland over southern Mexico by early Thursday. Winds
over the SW Gulf continue to strong breeze with the trough
through early this evening. Elsewhere, a building high pressure
north of the Gulf will promote fresh to strong NE winds over the
NE Gulf from Thu night through Fri night. Looking ahead, winds
and seas across the entire Gulf should be quiescent on the
weekend.
