Synopsis for the Gulf of America

233 AM EST Wed Nov 5 2025



.SYNOPSIS...Moderate to locally fresh NE to E winds in the SE Gulf

due to the pressure gradient between a stalled frontal boundary 

just north of the Yucatan Peninsula and high pressure building in

the eastern U.S. will diminish this afternoon as the front

dissipates. Thereafter and elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds 

and slight to moderate seas are expected over the Gulf through Sat

night. The next possibly strong cold front may enter the basin 

Sun with fresh to strong winds and building seas behind it.
