GMZ001-151345- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 840 PM EST Thu Nov 14 2024 .SYNOPSIS...A surface trough extending from N-central Florida to the NE tip of the Yucatan Peninsula will merge later tonight with a cold front extending from Apalachee Bay, Florida to 22N92W to 20.5N97W. The front will slowly shift southeastward through early Sat with moderate to fresh winds behind it. Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Sara is in the NW Caribbean. However, this system is no longer expected to move into the Gulf of Mexico and should instead dissipate over the Yucatan Peninsula by Mon. Looking ahead, moderate to fresh E to SE return flow, locally strong, will dominate the basin Sat night through early next week. The next cold front should enter the NW Gulf by early Tue, moving across the basin through mid-week. $$ GMZ040-151345- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 840 PM EST Thu Nov 14 2024 .OVERNIGHT...NE winds 10 to 15 kt.
