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...High pressure over the central Gulf will maintain
gentle to moderate S to SE winds over the western half of the
basin and light to gentle variable wind across the eastern Gulf
into mid week. SE winds will increase to moderate to fresh
speeds over the far western Gulf tonight into Sat night,
expanding to the eastern Gulf Thu night through Sun as low
pressure develops along Central America and the Bermuda high
extends into portions of the E Gulf. A tighter pressure gradient
between these two features will likely result in locally strong
winds across the northern Yucatan peninsula offshore waters Fri
night into Sun.
