SYNOPSIS FOR THE GULF OF AMERICA
353 AM EDT MON SEP 7 2026
SYNOPSIS
HIGH PRESSURE WILL PERSIST ACROSS THE GULF BASIN
THROUGH THE PERIOD, PRODUCING A WEAK PRESSURE GRADIENT. THIS WILL
SUPPORT MOSTLY LIGHT TO GENTLE WINDS AND SLIGHT SEAS OVER MUCH OF
THE WATERS. WINDS WILL PULSE TO FRESH WITH MODERATE SEAS OFF THE
WESTERN YUCATAN PENINSULA DURING THE EVENINGS DUE TO A DIURNAL
SURFACE TROUGH MOVING WESTWARD FROM THE PENINSULA EACH NIGHT.
