GMZ001-110230- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 1029 AM EDT Wed Apr 10 2019 .SYNOPSIS...A stationary front extends from SW Florida near 26N82W to beyond the Yucatan Channel. This front will drift southward and dissipate over the next day. In response to a strong extratropical cyclone over the U.S. Southern Great Plains, southerly return flow will be enhanced in the western Gulf through Thu. A ridge of high pressure north of the Gulf will subsequently promote quiescent conditions through Sat morning. Late Sat, southeasterly return flow will be enhanced ahead of the next cold front, which should emerge off of the Texas coast on Sun. $$ GMZ011-110230- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 1029 AM EDT Wed Apr 10 2019 .TODAY...S winds 15 to 20 kt.
