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...Strong southerly flow, with frequent gusts to gale
force, are expected across much of the basin north of 22N, with 
these hazardous marine conditions gradually diminishing and 
improving from west to east through tonight. A strong pressure 
gradient between high pressure over the western Atlantic and a 
deepening low pressure over Texas and NE Mexico supports these 
wind speeds. A cold front in the Texas coastal waters will 
extend from the Florida Big Bend to near Tuxpan, Mexico by Thu 
evening, becoming stationary while drifting northward through 
Sat. Southerly return flow will dominate by the end of the 
weekend into early next week.
