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 weak low pressure and surface trough in the SW
Gulf will continue to drift southwestward over the next couple
of days and gradually dissipate. Fresh N-NE winds are forecast
over the western and SW Gulf through Wed night. Moderate to
fresh cyclonic winds will prevail across the eastern Gulf and
Florida Straits through tonight. Otherwise, modest high pressure
will lead to moderate or lighter north winds and slight to
moderate seas through midweek. A stronger high pressure building
southward through the eastern United States will lead to
increasing NE winds, with fresh to strong winds and rough seas
in the NE Gulf Thu through Sat. Fresh to strong NW winds will
pulse off Veracruz late Thu and Fri.
