000 FZNT32 KNHC 242037 OFFN21 Marine Weather HF Voice Broadcast NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 437 PM EDT Tue Aug 24 2021 Marine Weather HF Voice Broadcast for the Gulf of Mexico 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 for the Gulf of Mexico .SYNOPSIS...A surface trough will move into the eastern Gulf Wed night into Thu morning, bringing fresh E winds. Otherwise, high pressure pressure will dominate the basin through Fri, producing mainly gentle to moderate E to SE winds. Fresh winds will pulse west of the Yucatan Peninsula tonight and again Wed night. A broad area of low pressure is expected to form Thu over the southwestern Caribbean. Environmental conditions are forecast to be conducive for development if the low remains over water, and a tropical depression could form late this week or this weekend while the system moves northwestward over the northwestern Caribbean Sea, across the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico, and into the southwestern Gulf of Mexico by Sun. The system has a medium chance of tropical cyclone formation within the next 5 days. Regardless of development, confidence is increasing that winds and waves will increase Sun over the central and SW Gulf of Mexico.
