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...Fresh to strong E to NE winds and locally rough seas
will occur over the northern Gulf, mainly north of 25N, today
into early Sun as a strong pressure gradient prevails between
high pressure to the north and a low pressure system meandering
near the Bahamas and Florida peninsula. A warm front is expected
to develop in the central Gulf on Sun and lift northward into the
southeastern United States, supporting slowly diminishing winds
over the northern basin, and moderate E to SE winds and slight to
moderate seas over the rest of the Gulf into next week.
Elsewhere, fresh to locally strong N to NW winds will occur
offshore of Veracruz through this evening.
