The front and low will get reinforced by a cold front today with winds increasing over the NW Gulf, W-central Gulf and SW Gulf. A gale warning is in effect for frequent gusts in the NW Gulf and W-central through Sun morning, with a gale warning for sustained winds in effect offshore Veracruz, Mexico late tonight through at least Sun night. Very large seas will build across these areas through early next week while the boundaries meander. Meanwhile, a tropical wave is expected to move over the Bay of Campeche later today, and an area of low pres is forecast to develop while interacting with the frontal boundary. This area has a medium chance for tropical cyclone formation and a tropical depression could form during the early or middle part of next week while the system moves slowly northwestward over the SW Gulf of Mexico. Mainly gentle to moderate winds and slight to moderate seas will prevail SE of the features. $$ GMZ040-071945- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 332 AM EDT Sat Sep 7 2024 ...GALE WARNING... .TODAY...N winds 20 to 30 kt with frequent gusts to 40 kt.
