SOUTHEAST GULF OF AMERICA
SYNOPSIS
AN UPPER-LEVEL LOW JUST WEST OF THE NORTHERN YUCATAN
PENINSULA MOVING WESTWARD WILL CONTINUE TO SUSTAIN SCATTERED TO
NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER MOST OF THE EASTERN AND
CENTRAL GULF THROUGH THE WEEKEND. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE NE GULF AND A COUPLE OF TROUGHS OVER THE
NORTHERN AND CENTRAL GULF IS ALLOWING FOR MOSTLY FRESH EAST TO
SOUTHEAST WINDS TO EXIST ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN GULF
WATERS. A WEAK COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS THE NW GULF
THIS WEEKEND, AND STALL FROM THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE TO NW GULF
AND TO THE SW BY LATE SUN. WEAK LOW PRESSURE MAY RIDE UP ALONG
THE FRONT DURING THE WEEKEND AND INTO MON ENHANCING WINDS SOME
IN THE NW GULF AND NORTH-CENTRAL GULF. WINDS ELSEWHERE BEHIND
THE FRONT ARE EXPECTED TO MOSTLY MODERATE NORTHEAST WINDS. THE
FRONT IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN STATIONARY INTO MIDWEEK. FRESH TO
STRONG NORTHEAST WINDS ARE EXPECTED BEHIND THE FRONT BEGINNING
TUE, MAINLY IN THE NE AND NORTH-CENTRAL GULF, AS STRONG HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS SOUTHWARD BEHIND IT. LIGHT TO MODERATE ARE
GENERALLY EXPECTED ACROSS THE BASIN THROUGH THE PERIOD.

WITHIN 200 NM EAST OF THE COAST OF FLORIDA
SYNOPSIS
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL
REMAIN POSSIBLE ACROSS THE WATERS WEST OF 75W THROUGH AT LEAST
SAT. MEANWHILE, THE COMBINATION OF A TROUGH THAT EXTENDS FROM
31N52W TO 27N60W AND 20.5N65W AND A BROAD UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH
DIGGING SOUTHWARD WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT SCATTERED SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE WEEKEND NORTH OF ABOUT 22N AND
EAST OF 70W. TRADES JUST NORTH OF HISPANIOLA WILL PULSE TO FRESH
TO LOCALLY STRONG SPEEDS TONIGHT AND ON SAT NIGHT. OTHERWISE,
RATHER TRANQUIL CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH WED. LOOKING
AHEAD, A COLD FRONT MAY REACH THE WATERS OFF OF NE FLORIDA TUE
MORNING AND STALL. STRONG HIGH PRESSURE WILL NUDGE SOUTHWARD
BEHIND THE FRONT WITH THE RESULTANT PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN IT
AND THE FRONT LIKELY TO INDUCE STRONG NORTHEAST WINDS, WITH
POTENTIAL TO NEAR GALE FORCE, AND ALONG WITH BUILDING OFFSHORE NE
FLORIDA.
