Synopsis for the Gulf of America
356 AM EST Sun Nov 30 2025

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure over the Carolinas continues to support fresh
E winds across the southeast Gulf and Florida Straits, with rough seas
over the Florida Straits. These winds and seas will diminish through
this morning, as the high pressure shifts eastward ahead of a cold
front moving into the eastern U.S. This front will enter the
northwest Gulf later this morning, then 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 over the central Gulf through mid-week, as another low
forms over South Texas. Looking ahead, expect fresh southerly
flow over the western Gulf as the low pressure moves
northeastward.
