SYNOPSIS FOR THE GULF OF AMERICA
318 PM EST MON DEC 8 2025
SYNOPSIS
A STRONG COLD FRONT EXTENDING FROM CENTRAL FLORIDA TO
THE CENTRAL BAY OF CAMPECHE WILL PROGRESS SOUTHEASTWARD OVER THE
BASIN EARLY THIS WEEK. GALE FORCE WINDS AND LOCALIZED VERY ROUGH
SEAS ARE EXPECTED OFFSHORE OF VERACRUZ THROUGH THIS EVENING, WITH
STRONG WINDS CONTINUING IN THIS REGION INTO TUE MORNING.
WIDESPREAD FRESH TO STRONG N WINDS AND ROUGH SEAS WILL OCCUR IN
THE WAKE OF THE FRONT OVER THE CENTRAL AND WESTERN GULF THROUGH
LATE TONIGHT, WITH MAINLY FRESH WINDS AND MODERATE SEAS EXPECTED
IN THE EASTERN BASIN. WINDS AND SEAS WILL DIMINISH FROM NORTHWEST
TO SOUTHEAST THROUGH TUE AS THE FRONT STALLS NEAR THE YUCATAN
PENINSULA AND EVENTUALLY DISSIPATES AROUND MIDWEEK. LOOKING AHEAD,
WEAK HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE BASIN LATER THIS WEEK,
SUPPORTING GENTLE TO MODERATE WINDS AND SLIGHT SEAS.
