GMZ001-090245- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 1044 AM EDT Thu Sep 8 2022 .SYNOPSIS...A surface trough extending from the NE Gulf to south-central Gulf is producing scattered showers and thunderstorms. Otherwise, a weak pressure pattern will continue to dominate the Gulf waters through tonight, producing gentle to locally moderate winds and slight seas across the basin. Broad low pressure will form in the north-central Gulf early Fri and induce a moderate to locally fresh southerly return flow across the eastern half of the basin Fri night into Sat night. Looking ahead, winds and seas will diminish through Sun as the trough weakens and shifts west ahead of high pressure building over the northeast Gulf. $$ GMZ040-090245- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 1044 AM EDT Thu Sep 8 2022 .TODAY...N to NE winds 10 kt in the afternoon.
