Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
1113 AM EDT Sun Jun 30 2024

.SYNOPSIS...The pressure gradient between a ridge along the Gulf
coast states and a broad area of low pressure over the Bay of
Campeche will support fresh to strong E to SE winds and large
seas NW of the Yucatan Peninsula to the west-central Gulf with
occasional gusts to gale force. Conditions appear generally
conducive for further development, and a short-lived tropical
depression could form before the system moves inland over Mexico
on Mon morning. Meanwhile, distant Hurricane Beryl in the
Tropical N Atlantic may reach the NW Caribbean on Thu, with
tropical storm conditions possible over portions of the Yucatan
Peninsula and the E Bay of Campeche by Thu. Beryl is forecast to
be near 17.8N 82.8W early Thu.
