Synopsis for the Gulf of America
1106 PM EDT Tue Jun 16 2026
SYNOPSIS
Potential Tropical Cyclone One is along the SE Texas
coast near 27.6N 97.1W at 11 PM EDT, moving northeast at 5 kt.
Maximum sustained winds are 25 kt with gusts to 35 kt. Minimum
central pressure is 1004 mb. One will move NE and just offshore
of the Texas coast through Wed, reaching near 28.5N 95.6W Wed
morning as a Tropical Depression, move to near 30.2N 93.3W Wed
evening as it briefly strengthens to Tropical Storm strength,
then continue inland to 32.1N 90.9W Thu morning, before
dissipating Thu evening across east-central Louisiana. Large SW
to S swell generated by the Potential Tropical Cyclone is likely
to cause large and dangerous surf and life-threatening rip
current conditions along the northwestern and north-central Gulf
Coast for the next couple of days. Otherwise, a tightening
pressure gradient over the basin will sustain fresh to strong
southerly winds over the western and central Gulf Wed through
late Thu night, and moderate to fresh winds over the eastern
Gulf. Winds will begin to diminish late Fri as high pressure
settles in over the eastern Gulf.
