GMZ001-242115- Synopsis for the Gulf of America 415 AM EST Mon Nov 24 2025 .SYNOPSIS...A stationary front extends from the Florida panhandle to SE Texas. The front is expected to become a warm front and lift northeastward this morning as low pressure develops over the Southern Plains. Expect fresh southerly flow off the Texas coast through tonight supported by the gradient between low pressure over northeast Mexico and high pressure off the Carolinas. These winds will diminish Tue ahead of a frontal boundary that will be nearing the Texas coast. A stronger reinforcing cold front will overtake the frontal boundary early Wed, then move into the northwest Gulf. The cold front will then sweep to the southeast of the basin by late Thu, followed by fresh to strong northeast winds and building seas into the weekend. Scattered showers and thunderstorms may accompany the initial frontal boundary. $$ GMZ040-242115- NW Gulf of America including Stetson Bank- 415 AM EST Mon Nov 24 2025 .TODAY...S winds 15 to 20 kt.
