Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
335 PM EDT Mon May 20 2024

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends across central Florida into the
NE Gulf. Ahead of it, a trough is analyzed along 25N. Scattered 
showers and thunderstorms will prevail over the Straits of 
Florida this evening. Gusty winds along with rough seas will 
prevail near the convection. Moderate to fresh SE winds prevail 
elsewhere, with slight seas. Hazy conditions due to agricultural 
fires in Mexico continue across most of the western Gulf and Bay 
of Campeche.
