Marine Weather HF Voice Broadcast for the Gulf of Mexico

Seas given as significant wave height, which is the average
height of the highest 1/3 of the waves. Individual waves may be
more than twice the significant wave height.

.SYNOPSIS...A currently stalled weak frontal boundary from
Central Florida to near New Orleans, Louisiana will sag into the
SE Gulf through Fri before stalling again and dissipating. High
pressure behind it will support moderate to fresh winds and a
slight building of seas in the NE Gulf. High pressure builds
across the basin this weekend into early next week, centered
near 24N with moderate or weaker winds and mainly slight seas.
Otherwise, moderate to locally fresh winds, and scattered
showers and thunderstorms are expected along the Yucatan
Peninsula each evening through the period.
