Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico
902 PM EST Fri Dec 6 2024
.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong N to NE winds and moderate to rough
seas follow a cold front that extends from 26N82W to 25N98W. The
front will reach the Florida Straits by early Sat and then
dissipate while the stationary portion of the front lift northward
as a warm front before dissipating Sat night. Broad high pressure

supporting moderate to fresh E to SE winds across the basin.
Looking ahead, a stronger cold front is forecast to enter the far

and rapidly building seas. The front is forecast to reach from
Venice, Florida to the northern Yucatan peninsula to the eastern
Bay of Campeche by Wed afternoon and exit the basin Wed evening.

Forecaster ERA
Tropical Storm Ernesto has gradually weakened down to a tropical depression as it has moved into inland Mexico, killing 7 people in its wake. It has been raining in the flood-prone areas of Mexico’s southern Gulf region where Ernesto had been situated at. In Veracruz state, a teenage girl who had been riding in a car had been killed early Friday morning when she had been caught in a river current and a 62-year old man had been struck by lightning. According to the Veracruz state civil protection department in Mexico, 3 members of a family had died Thursday night at a time when strong winds caused a tree to fall on their car. The deceased included an 8-year old child, his mother and his 38-year old father.
In neighboring Tabasco state, two fishermen had been drowned as Ernesto had passed through the state, according to Tabasco state Governor Andres Granier in a meeting with reporters. The Governor had said that Ernesto’s winds had ripped apart rooftops from homes in the area. However at a time when many of the residents had refused to evacuate in the fear of losing their properties, “People have chosen to stay in their homes and we are helping them,” he said.
Tropical Storm Ernesto had been spotted ashore early Thursday near the waters where oil rigs are operated upon by the state oil company in the region of the southern part of Gulf of Mexico. As a result, the government has closed the port of Veracruz as well as the smaller ports of Coatzacoalcos and Alvarado.
According to the National Hurricane Center of the US, Ernesto had sustained winds that decreased to 35 mph by early Friday. Ernesto has continued to weaken but according to the center, it can continue to dole out rainfall as it dissipates.
