SYNOPSIS FOR THE GULF OF AMERICA
448 PM EDT THU AUG 14 2025
SYNOPSIS
SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY HAS INCREASED IN
ASSOCIATION WITH AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE LOCATED OVER THE BAY OF
CAMPECHE. THE LOW IS FORECAST TO MOVE WEST-NORTHWESTWARD ACROSS
THE SOUTHWESTERN GULF DURING THE NEXT DAY OR SO, WHERE
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS ARE MARGINALLY CONDUCIVE FOR FURTHER
DEVELOPMENT. A TROPICAL DEPRESSION COULD FORM BEFORE THIS SYSTEM
MOVES INLAND OVER NORTHEASTERN MEXICO OR SOUTHERN TEXAS BY LATE
FRIDAY ENDING ITS CHANCES FOR TROPICAL DEVELOPMENT. REGARDLESS OF
DEVELOPMENT, LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL IS POSSIBLE ALONG PORTIONS OF
NORTHEASTERN MEXICO AND SOUTHERN TEXAS OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THERE
IS A MEDIUM CHANCE OF TROPICAL FORMATION OVER THE NEXT 48 HOURS.
OTHERWISE, GENTLE WINDS AND SLIGHT SEAS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE
BASIN AS WEAK HIGH PRESSURE DOMINATES.
