Synopsis for the Gulf of America

351 PM EDT Sat Jul 11 2026



.SYNOPSIS...A cold front will become stationary just N of the area

early next week, enhancing thunderstorms across the far northern

Gulf. Mariners in this portion of the basin can expect gusty

winds, frequent lightning, and locally higher seas near the

stronger thunderstorms. Elsewhere, high pressure will dominate, 

supporting mainly gentle to moderate SE winds. Fresh to strong 

easterly winds will pulse offshore the Yucatan Peninsula each 

night.
