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 strong pressure gradient between the Bermuda High
and low pressure over N Mexico/Texas will continue forcing fresh
to near gale SE winds across the basin through Sat afternoon.
The moist SE flow may allow areas of sea fog to persist across
the northern Gulf into Sat. A strong late- season cold front
will emerge off of the Texas coast Sat evening. Fresh to near
gale N winds and rapidly building seas will follow the front
over the western Gulf Sun and Mon with northerly gales possible
near Tampico on Sun morning, and off Veracruz by late Sun
afternoon. The cold front will extend from the Florida panhandle
to the eastern Bay of Campeche Mon followed by fresh to strong N
winds. Looking ahead, the front will weaken as it moves
southeast of the area Tue followed by weak high pressure over
the northern Gulf. Winds and seas will diminish accordingly
through Tue night in all but the far southeast Gulf where fresh
winds and rough seas may persist.
