000 FZNT27 KNHC 282010 OFFN06 NAVTEX Marine Forecast NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 310 PM EST Tue Dec 28 2021 ...Please refer to Coastal Waters Forecasts (CWF) available through NOAA Weather Radio and other means for detailed Coastal Waters Forecasts... .SYNOPSIS...A ridge extending from the western Atlantic into the Gulf will support moderate to fresh winds across the central and western Gulf through Wed night. The ridge will shift eastward, allowing for gentle to moderate winds and slight to moderate seas across the entire basin Thu as a weak frontal boundary stalls and dissipates along the Texas coast. Looking ahead, southeast to south winds are expected to increase over the western Gulf by late Fri as low pressure moves into the Central Plains. A strong cold front associated with this low pressure may reach the Texas coast late Sat night or early Sun before it quickly moves to the eastern Gulf late Sun. Gale-force winds are possible behind the front over the western Gulf from early Sun through Mon night, with strong to near gale-force winds elsewhere across the area in the wake of the front. Seas are expected to quickly build behind the front as well. Northwest Gulf of Mexico ...GALE CONDITIONS POSSIBLE W OF 94W SUN... .TONIGHT...S winds 15 to 20 kt.
