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 stationary front extends from Siesta Key, Florida
to 26N95W. A few showers are seen north of the boundary. Moderate
or lighter winds and slight to moderate seas prevail across the
basin and will persist through this evening as the front weakens
and drifts northward. A cold front is expected to enter the NW
Gulf tonight and overtake the current front, while sweeping across
the basin into early next week. This will lead to fresh to strong
N to NW winds and building seas in the wake of the front. Gale-force
NW to N winds are forecast off Veracruz Mon evening. Winds and
seas will diminish Tue into Wed as the front stalls across the
Yucatan Channel and Straits of Florida, and high pressure settles
across the central Gulf. Light to gentle winds and slight seas
will persist late Wed through the end of next week.
