NAVTEX Marine Forecast
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL
525 PM EDT Wed Aug 25 2021

...Please refer to Coastal Waters Forecasts (CWF) available
through NOAA Weather Radio and other means for detailed
Coastal Waters Forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...A surface trough will move into the eastern Gulf
tonight into Thu morning, bringing fresh NE to E winds.
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 over the 
southwestern Caribbean Sea during the next day or so. 
Environmental conditions are forecast to be conducive for 
development, and a tropical depression or tropical storm is 
likely to form late this week or over the weekend. The system is 
expected to move northwestward over the northwestern Caribbean 
Sea and near or across the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico Fri night,
and into the Gulf of Mexico this weekend, where conditions are 
expected to be favorable for additional development. Mariners 
should closely monitor the progress of this system. While not 
explicitly in the forecast, this system has potential for 
significant strengthening in the Gulf of Mexico. Expect a large 
increase in winds and seas this weekend in association with this 
system.
