304 FZNT32 KNHC 040916 OFFN21 Marine Weather HF Voice Broadcast NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 416 AM EST Sun Feb 4 2024 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 deepening low pressure system located over the north-central Gulf will move across the NE Gulf today. The attendant cold front will also move across the eastern Gulf today, and then exit to the southeast of the Gulf this afternoon. Gale force southerly winds are occurring ahead of the front and low pressure. Strong to gale force W to NW winds and rough to very rough seas will follow these two features. These hazardous marine conditions are forecast to affect most of the Gulf region through Mon night. Mariners are urged to exercise caution across the Gulf of Mexico, including outside of the gale warning areas due to the expansive area of strong to near- gale force winds associated with the successive weather systems. The large wind fields will build rough to very rough seas across much of the Gulf of Mexico. Sea heights of 12 to 18 ft are expected.
