325 FZNT32 KNHC 062107 OFFN21 Marine Weather HF Voice Broadcast NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 407 PM EST Wed Dec 6 2023 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 is building over the area in the wake of the recent cold front. A tight gradient between the high pressure and a trough that extends from Tampico to 18N94W is allowing for fresh to strong northeast winds over the SW Gulf, and for fresh N to NE winds in the southern half of the central Gulf. These winds will diminish by early on Thu. The high pressure will shift eastward into the Atlantic Thu night, inducing moderate to fresh return flow across most of the basin Fri through Sat, ahead of the next cold front that is forecast to enter the NW Gulf Sat evening. Strong to near gale force winds are likely behind the front, with gale force winds possible in the SW Gulf and over a portion of the w-central Gulf zones. The front is expected to reach from west- central Florida to the Yucatan Peninsula by lat Sun. Gulf of Mexico N of 26N W of 87W .TONIGHT...NE winds 10 to 20 kt. Seas 4 to 6 ft. .THU...E winds 10 kt.
