A brief check around some of the southern Gulf buoys yields the following:
Station 42003 - 260nm South of Panama City Beach: Winds are due east @ 15.5knts gusting to 23.3. Wave Heights are 2.3'. Water Temperature is 88.5 degrees. Pressure is 29.79 (which represents a 4 basis point drop from yesterday's 29.83 @ 4pm).
Gulf Buoy 42001 which is the Mid Gulf Buoy about 180nm South of SW Pass, LA shows a similar .04 drop in pressure from yesterday. The winds here are due north @ 11.7knts gusting to 15.5knts. Water temps are 86.4.
Gulf Buoy 42041 which is 110nm S of Grand Isle shows a .03 pressure drop and also winds out of the NNE @ 3.9kts.
BURL1 which is located in SW Pass, LA has a .03 drop from yesterday and has ENE (True) winds at 8knts.
----------------------------------------------
Most of the buoys off of the FL coast show rising pressure compared to yesterday and show E, SE or ESE winds. The buoys to the north and west of the circulation are N and NE. Buoys farther toward Texas show no evidence (obviously) at this time of any deepenings in the Gulf.
