Synopsis for the Gulf of America
1053 AM EDT Sun Jun 7 2026

.SYNOPSIS...A ridge will continue to dominate the Gulf region
supporting gentle to moderate E to SE winds over the eastern
Gulf and moderate to fresh SE to S winds over the western Gulf
through Mon. Winds will be easterly at mostly fresh speeds
across most of the western and central Gulf S of 26N through
midweek. The exception will be off the Yucatan Peninsula, where
a diurnal trough will support moderate winds to pulse to fresh,
occasionally strong, during the evenings through Wed. Slight to
moderate seas will occur with these winds. For late in the week,
a possible trough, or low pressure may shift northward from the 
Yucatan Peninsula into the south-central Gulf of America
accompanied by numerous showers and thunderstorms along with 
fresh to strong winds and building seas.
