Synopsis for the Gulf of America

1046 AM EDT Wed Jul 1 2026



.SYNOPSIS...A ridge across the northern Gulf will continue to 

dominate the basin for the remainder of the week. A weakening

frontal trough extending from SE Louisiana to the central Florida

coast will gradually dissipate through Thu, with scattered 

showers and thunderstorms persisting along the trough. Fresh to 

locally strong NE to E winds will pulse off the NW Yucatan 

Peninsula nightly through Sun night due to local effects 

associated with a daily surface trough. Gentle to moderate E to SE

winds will prevail across the western half of the Gulf while 

moderate or weaker winds are expected elsewhere E of 90W.
