000 FZNT27 KNHC 020321 OFFN06 NAVTEX Marine Forecast NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 1121 PM EDT Wed Jun 1 2022 ...Please refer to Coastal Waters Forecasts (CWF) available through NOAA Weather Radio and other means for detailed Coastal Waters Forecasts... .SYNOPSIS...A broad area of low pressure located near the east coast of the Yucatan Peninsula is producing a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms over the northwestern Caribbean Sea and Yucatan Peninsula. Gradual development is forecast, and this system is likely to become a tropical depression while it moves slowly northeastward over the northwestern Caribbean Sea and southeastern Gulf of Mexico during the next couple of days. Expect for shower and thunderstorm activity to increase in the southeastern and south-central Gulf sections through Sat. Otherwise, a high pressure ridge extends from the western Atlantic across the northern Gulf. This will maintain moderate to fresh easterly winds over the western and central Gulf waters through late tonight. Winds in the central Gulf and eastern Bay of Campeche become fresh northeast winds Thu through Fri night in response to the expected tropical cyclone. The pressure gradient between the high pressure and lower pressure west of the area will strengthen some starting Sun allowing for fresh return flow to set up over the western Gulf.
