Synopsis for the Gulf of America
914 AM EST Sat Jan 24 2026

.SYNOPSIS...A warm front extends from N Florida westward to 
28N90W and to the central Texas coast. Elongated low pressure
will form in the NW Gulf this afternoon and deepen as it tracks 
NE into Louisiana by early Sun pulling the warm front N of the
area. This will take place in advance of an arctic front expected
to move into the Texas coastal waters this afternoon. The front 
will then move SE across the entire basin Sun through Mon evening.
Strong reinforcing arctic high pressure behind the front is 
expected to produce near gale force winds across NW portions of 
the Gulf Sun and Sun night, gale conditions over the offshore 
waters of Tampico Sun night into Mon morning, and gales over the 
waters offshore Veracruz Mon and Mon night. Seas are expected to 
quickly build across the basin starting Sun. Conditions will 
improve quickly from NW to SE Tue through Wed as the front moves 
SE into the NW Caribbean. Mariners are advised to keep up with 
the latest forecasts.
