Synopsis for the Gulf of America

941 PM EST Tue Nov 10 2026



.SYNOPSIS...A rather strong cold front will reach the Texas coast

Wed night, then sweep across the Gulf through Thu night, exiting 

the basin early on Fri, followed by fresh to locally strong 

northerly winds and building seas. Fresh to strong northwest winds

are expected in the far SW Gulf Thu through Fri. High pressure 

will settle in over the area in the wake of the front this 

weekend, with moderate to fresh easterly winds expected. These 

winds increase to fresh to strong speeds over the NW Gulf Sun, 

then shifting to the north-central and NE Gulf by Sun night as the

gradient tightens ahead of a western Gulf frontal system and 

attendant low pressure that will be shifting eastward.
