SYNOPSIS FOR THE GULF OF AMERICA
408 PM EDT MON SEP 28 2026
SYNOPSIS
A WEAK STATIONARY FRONT OVER THE NORTH-CENTRAL GULF
WILL DISSIPATE THROUGH EARLY TUE. HIGH PRESSURE NORTH OF THE FRONT
IS SUPPORTING GENTLE TO MODERATE E TO SE WINDS ACROSS THE GULF. EXPECT
MODERATE TO FRESH WINDS AND BUILDING SEAS OVER MOSTLY THE WESTERN
GULF BY TUE NIGHT, AS THE HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTS EASTWARD AHEAD OF
A COLD FRONT MOVING THROUGH THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. LOOKING AHEAD,
WINDS AND SEAS WILL DIMINISH LATE IN THE WEEK AS THE FRONT
APPROACHES THE NORTHWEST GULF FRI AND SAT.
