Individual waves may be more than twice the significant wave height. GMZ001-032100- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 459 AM EDT Thu Oct 3 2024 .SYNOPSIS...Strong to near-gale force winds over a portion of the SW Gulf that includes within 60 nm offshore Veracruz will diminish this evening. Little change is expected through Sat. Rough seas with these winds will slowly subside through the end of the week. Otherwise, disorganized showers and thunderstorms over portions of the Gulf of Mexico are associated with a surface trough. A broad area of low pressure is likely to develop over the Gulf of Mexico late this weekend or early next week, but subsequent tropical or subtropical development could be limited by the system potential interaction with a frontal boundary. Regardless of development, locally heavy rains could occur over portions of Mexico during the next few days and over portions of the Florida Peninsula next week. $$ GMZ040-032100- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 459 AM EDT Thu Oct 3 2024 .TODAY...NE to E winds 10 to 15 kt.
