Synopsis for the Gulf of America
253 PM EDT Tue May 26 2026
.SYNOPSIS...The Atlantic ridge extending west-southwestward
across Florida into the central Gulf will sustain gentle to
moderate SE to S winds through the weekend. The exception will
be evening pulses of fresh off the northern Yucatan through Thu
night. An upper-level trough across the central Gulf should
continue to couple with abundant tropical moisture to produce
scattered heavy showers and strong thunderstorms over the
central and eastern Gulf through Thu. These thunderstorms are
capable of producing gusty winds, frequent lightning, limited
visibility, and locally rough seas. Mariners are urged to keep up
to date with the latest forecast.
