SYNOPSIS FOR THE GULF OF AMERICA
1012 PM EDT SUN AUG 24 2025
SYNOPSIS
A STATIONARY FRONT WILL LINGER ALONG THE NORTHERN
GULF LIKELY THROUGH MIDWEEK WHILE A SURFACE TROUGH STRETCHES FROM
THE NE TO THE SW GULF WITH BOTH SUPPORTING NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS MUCH OF THE BASIN. A WEAK LOW MAY DEVELOP
ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY BY LATE TUE INTO WED. A WEAK RIDGE WILL
CONTINUE TO DOMINATE THE REMAINDER OF THE GULF REGION SUPPORTING
GENTLE TO MODERATE WINDS AND SLIGHT SEAS. MODERATE TO FRESH NE TO
E WINDS WILL DEVELOP OVER THE SOUTH-CENTRAL GULF EACH AFTERNOON
THROUGH THE WEEK AS A TROUGH DEVELOPS OVER THE YUCATAN PENINSULA
AND MOVES WESTWARD AT NIGHT. SLIGHT TO MODERATE SEAS ARE EXPECTED
WITH THESE WINDS.
