Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A broad area of low pressure in the central gulf
will shift northwest and reach inland southeast Texas on Fri
evening. Fresh to locally strong easterly winds are forecast
over the northeast semicircle of the low. This system has a
medium chance of becoming a tropical cyclone prior to reaching
the Texas coast. A northwest to southeast orientated surface
ridge will set up from central Louisiana to Florida Bay by early
Sat, with a surface high developing along the ridge near 27N91W
late Sat. The surface high will shift slightly south early next
week as a surface trough passes slowly east across the
north-central gulf waters.
