Coastal Waters Forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...A surface trough will move into the eastern Gulf Wed
night into Thu morning, bringing fresh E winds to the NE Gulf Thu
morning. Otherwise, high pressure pressure will dominate the 
basin through Fri, producing mainly gentle to moderate E to SE 
winds. A broad area of low pressure is expected to form Thu over
the southwestern Caribbean. Environmental conditions are 
forecast to be conducive for development if the low remains over 
water, and a tropical depression could form late this week or 
this weekend while the system moves northwestward over the 
northwestern Caribbean Sea, across the Yucatan Peninsula of 
Mexico, and into the southwestern Gulf of Mexico by Sun. The 
system has a medium chance of tropical cyclone formation within 
the next 5 days. Regardless of development, confidence is 
increasing that winds and waves will increase Sun over the 
central and SW Gulf of Mexico.
