SYNOPSIS FOR THE GULF OF AMERICA
402 PM EDT SUN JUL 20 2025
SYNOPSIS
RELATIVELY WEAK HIGH PRESSURE WILL PREVAIL ACROSS
THE BASIN THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK PRODUCING GENTLE TO
MODERATE WINDS ALONG WITH SLIGHT TO MODERATE SEAS. FRESH TO
LOCALLY STRONG NORTHEAST TO EAST WINDS WILL PULSE ALONG THE
YUCATAN PENINSULA EACH AFTERNOON AND EVENING WELL INTO THE WEEK
AS A TROUGH DEVELOPS INLAND DAILY AND SHIFTS WESTWARD OVER THE
BAY OF CAMPECHE AT NIGHT. LOOKING AHEAD, WINDS MAY INCREASE TO
FRESH SPEEDS ACROSS THE NE AND NORTH-CENTRAL GULF BY THU AS BROAD
LOW PRESSURE MOVES ACROSS THE SOUTHEASTERN U.S. BEFORE POSSIBLY
MOVING FROM E TO W ACROSS THE NORTHERN GULF. WIDESPREAD SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED OVER MOST OF THE EASTERN AND NORTH-
CENTRAL GULF WATERS STARTING TUE.
