SYNOPSIS FOR THE GULF OF AMERICA
1017 PM EDT WED OCT 1 2025
SYNOPSIS
BUILDING HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN
UNITED STATES WILL DOMINATE THE GULF WATERS THROUGH THE END OF THE
WEEK. FRESH TO STRONG NW WINDS WILL PULSE OFF VERACRUZ THU EVENING AND
FRI. MEANWHILE, THE PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN THE AFOREMENTIONED
RIDGE AND A DEVELOPING LOW PRESSURE ALONG A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL
LEAD TO FRESH TO STRONG E WINDS AND ROUGH SEAS IN THE N GULF LATE
THU THROUGH SAT. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS CAN
ALSO BE EXPECTED NEAR THE LOW PRESSURE AND ASSOCIATED FRONTAL
BOUNDARY. THE LOW PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO LIFT NORTHWARD ON SUN
