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 Gulf through Sat afternoon. On
Sat night, a strong late-season cold front will emerge off of
the Texas coast. Fresh to near gale N winds and rapidly building
seas will follow the front over the W Gulf on Sun and Mon with N
gales possible near Tampico on Sun morning. Looking ahead to Mon
morning, the cold front will extend from the Florida panhandle
to the Bay of Campeche with N winds fresh to strong following
the front and near gale NW winds off of Veracruz. By Tue
morning, winds across the Gulf should drop to fresh or weaker as
the cold front reaches the Yucatan Channel.
