Synopsis for the Gulf of America

241 PM EST Thu Nov 13 2025



.SYNOPSIS...The pressure gradient between high pressure centered

over the NE Gulf and relatively lower pressure to the south will

allow for moderate to locally fresh northeast winds and moderate

seas across the southeastern Gulf through Fri evening, including

the Straits of Florida and Yucatan Channel. The high pressure

will change little through tonight, then be replaced by new high

pressure on Fri. This high pressure will slip southward through

the weekend, and shift eastward early next week as a cold front

pushes offshore the southeastern U.S. Otherwise, mostly moderate

southeast to south winds are expected over the NW Gulf through

this weekend before increasing to fresh speeds Mon night and 

lasting into Tue while expanding in coverage.
