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 are expected north of
27N through Sun morning as a strong pressure gradient persists
between a 1010 mb low in the northwestern Gulf, a stationary
front extending from the low through the Florida Straits, and
high pressure to the north. Locally rough seas will accompany the
strong winds. The front will lift northward on Sun, allowing for
winds and seas to slowly diminish over the northern basin.
Elsewhere, fresh NW winds will pulse offshore of Veracruz through
this evening. Looking ahead, moderate E to SE winds and slight
to moderate seas are expected over much of the basin early next
week, with locally fresh winds possible in the northeastern Gulf.
