out to 60 nm
127 AM EDT Fri Jul 25 2025

.SYNOPSIS...

High pressure will gradually build across the northern Gulf this
weekend with southeast winds today clocking around to
northwesterly this weekend. Drier air moves in as well which will
reduce rain chances into early next week. Favorable marine
conditions are on tap featuring wind speeds of 10-15 knots and
seas of 1 to 3 feet. Rain chances return next week as the high
pressure moves west and increasing moisture arrives sparking daily
showers and storms.
