Individual waves may be more than twice the significant wave height. GMZ001-070830- Synopsis for the Gulf of America 419 PM EDT Wed May 6 2026 .SYNOPSIS...Relatively weak high pressure over the eastern and central Gulf interacting with lower pressures over Mexico will support moderate to locally fresh southeast winds in the western Gulf, and gentle to moderate winds in the eastern Gulf through late tonight. Winds will pulse to fresh to strong near the Yucatan Peninsula in the evenings through Sat. A weak cold front is forecast to enter the NW Gulf coastal waters Thu morning, quickly stall Thu evening, then lift back to the north as a warm front Fri into Sat as high pressure ridging builds back in across the basin from the east. Looking ahead, another cold front may try to move into the northern Gulf waters late on Sun, and reach from north- central Florida to eastern Bay of Campeche by late on Mon, followed by moderate to fresh north to northeast winds. Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms, some possibly strong to marginally severe, are likely to precede the fronts. $$ GMZ040-070830- NW Gulf of America including Stetson Bank- 419 PM EDT Wed May 6 2026 .TONIGHT...SE winds 10 kt.
