Marine Weather HF Voice Broadcast for the Gulf of America

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 tight pressure gradient between a strong ridge
over the eastern United States and lower pressures in the deep
tropics result in moderate to fresh NE winds over much of the
basin. Strong winds and rough seas are found in the NE and
central Gulf and this will continue through tonight. Marine
conditions will improve Sun. Meanwhile, a 1006 mb low pres
currently near east- central Florida will move northward over
the next couple of days and drag a cold front across the SE and
central Gulf. Moderate to locally fresh E winds and moderate
seas will affect the area behind the boundary early next week.
Ridging will build in by midweek, allowing for gentle to
moderate easterly winds.
