Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A surface trough will move into the eastern Gulf Wed
night into Thu morning, bringing fresh 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 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.
