Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A weak pressure gradient will maintain gentle to
locally moderate winds and slight seas across much of the basin
through the period. Scattered to numerous convection will
continue across the northwest and north-central portions of the

trough and weak low pressure. The surface trough and weak low
pressure is expected to meander near the northwest Gulf coast
through much of next week, and some slow development of this
system is possible if it remains offshore. Expect frequent
lightning and gusty winds with the shower and thunderstorm
activity.
