Synopsis for the Gulf of America
357 PM EDT Wed Oct 15 2025

.SYNOPSIS...A ridge will continue to dominate the Gulf region this
week, resulting in gentle to moderate winds and slight to moderate
seas over much of the basin. Winds are forecast to increase to
fresh speeds over the eastern Gulf Thu night through Sat night as
the pressure gradient tightens some across the area. Winds will
veer to the SE and S toward the end of the week as high pressure
over the SE United States shifts eastward into the western Atlantic.
