SOUTHEAST GULF OF AMERICA
SYNOPSIS
THE ATLANTIC RIDGE EXTENDS ACROSS FLORIDA INTO THE
GULF REGION. THIS SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT A GENTLE TO
MODERATE E TO SE WIND FLOW THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK, WITH
THE EXCEPTION OF FRESH TO STRONG WINDS PULSING OFF NW YUCATAN
FROM THE LATE AFTERNOONS AND INTO THE NIGHT TIME HOURS DUE TO
LOCAL EFFECTS ASSOCIATED WITH A THERMAL TROUGH. AN UPPER-LEVEL
DISTURBANCE CONTINUES TO ENHANCE THE DEVELOPMENT OF NUMEROUS
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE WESTERN GULF, MORE CONCENTRATED
OVER THE NW PART OF THE BASIN. THESE THUNDERSTORMS ARE CAPABLE OF
PRODUCING GUSTY WINDS, FREQUENT LIGHTNING, LIMITED VISIBILITY AND
LOCALLY ROUGH SEAS. THE SE FLOW WILL CONTINUE TO ADVECT ABUNDANT
TROPICAL MOISTURE THROUGH AT LEAST THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK HELPING
TO INDUCE MORE CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY ACROSS THE GULF WATERS.
MARINERS ARE URGED TO KEEP UP WITH THE LATEST FORECAST.

SYNOPSIS
WINDS ARE FORECAST TO INCREASE OVER MOST OF THE WATERS
S OF 25N STARTING MON, INCLUDING THE WATERS BETWEEN CUBA AND THE
BAHAMAS AS WELL AS THE ENTRANCE TO THE WINDWARD PASSAGE AS A
STRONGER ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE BEGINS TO SHIFT SOUTHEASTWARD
TIGHTENING THE PRESSURE GRADIENT. THE HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN
BEGIN TO WEAKEN WED ALLOWING FOR THE TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT TO
SLACKEN LEADING TO DIMINISHING WINDS AND SEAS. FRESH TO STRONG
TRADES WILL PULSE NORTH OF HISPANIOLA THROUGH TUE NIGHT INTO WED
MORNING CREATING MODERATE TO ROUGH SEAS. THE WESTERN PART OF A
COLD FRONT WILL PUSH SOUTH ACROSS THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE AREA
FROM TONIGHT INTO EARLY MON BEFORE STALLING NEAR 27N, AND
DISSIPATING ON TUE. FRESH TO STRONG NORTHEAST WINDS ALONG WITH
MODERATE TO ROUGH SEAS WILL FOLLOW THE FRONT, WITH THESE MARINE
CONDITIONS SUBSIDING ON TUE.
