GMZ001-130245- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 1039 AM EDT Fri Aug 12 2022 .SYNOPSIS...Weak high pressure extending from the western Atlantic westward along 29N to the N central Gulf will sink southeast from late this afternoon through Tue. This will allow for gentle to moderate winds over the basin to weaken to light to gentle into next week. Moderate NE to E winds will pulse to fresh during the late afternoon and evenings off the NW Yucatan peninsula through early next week. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue over the northern Gulf waters through early Sat, then shift across the NW Gulf Sat through Sun as a surface trough lingers over the north-central Gulf with low pressure along it. A the same time, a weak frontal boundary is expected to stall just north of the central and NE Gulf. $$ GMZ040-130245- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 1039 AM EDT Fri Aug 12 2022 .TODAY...SW winds 10 kt, shifting to N to NE in the afternoon.
