This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Gulf of Mexico Effects, Sea breeze are Microscale (Tertiary) winds, Relatively warm water temperatures contributes to the formation and enhancement of Hurricanes, Advective Fog most prevalent in Late Fall through early Spring, Major source of moisture contributes to the formation and enhancement of Gulf Thunderstorms, Advective Fog is most dense when Warm air advects from over the Gulf, Gulf of Mexico (effects on regional weather) is a Major source of moisture, Major source of moisture contributes to the formation and enhancement of Advective Fog, Advective Fog generally dissipates by Late morning, Gulf of Mexico (effects on regional weather) has Relatively warm water temperatures, Relatively warm water temperatures lessen impact of approaching Arctic air masses, Warm air advects from over the Gulf to Near-shore inland areas, Inland regions defined as More than 10 nautical miles from the coast, Major source of moisture contributes to the formation and enhancement of Sea breeze, Air temperature reaches 10 degrees above the sea surface temperature due to Solar Heating of the Land, Major source of moisture contributes to the formation and enhancement of Hurricanes, Relatively warm water temperatures raise Minimum temperatures, Sea breeze occurs primarily during Summer, Summer involves Solar Heating of the Land, Relatively warm water temperatures lessen impact of approaching Polar air masses, Warm air advects from over the Gulf to Cooler coastal waters
