Synopsis for the Gulf of America
925 PM EST Sun Nov 23 2025

.SYNOPSIS...A frontal boundary remains stationary from the Florida
panhandle to Lake Jackson, Texas. The front will lift northeastward
as a warm front tonight as low pressure develops over the Southern
Plains. Expect fresh southerly flow off the Texas coast tonight
through Mon night supported by the gradient between low pressure
over northeast Mexico and high pressure off the Carolinas. These
winds will diminish Tue ahead of a frontal boundary that will be
nearing the Texas coast. A stronger reinforcing cold front will
overtake the frontal boundary early Wed, then move into the
northwest Gulf. The cold front will then sweep to the southeast of
the basin by late Thu, followed by fresh to strong northeast
winds and building seas into the weekend. Scattered showers and
thunderstorms may accompany the initial frontal boundary.
