287 FZNT24 KNHC 110839 OFFNT4 Offshore Waters Forecast for the Gulf of Mexico NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 439 AM EDT Mon Jul 11 2022 Offshore Waters Forecast 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. GMZ001-112045- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 439 AM EDT Mon Jul 11 2022 .SYNOPSIS...Surface ridging is over the area, while a surface trough extends from near Apalachicola, Florida to 29N87W. The present gradient will maintain light to gentle southwest winds east of 90W through the forecast period, except over the far NE Gulf where a slighter tighter gradient near the trough will support moderate to fresh southwest winds. Gentle to moderate southerly winds west of 94W will increase to moderate to fresh speeds at night through Thu while diminishing back to gentle to moderate speeds by early in the afternoons as broad low pressure develops over Texas and northeastern Mexico. Light to gentle winds are expected across the Gulf on Fri, except over the eastern Bay of Campeche where winds will be enhanced by a thermal trough coming off the Yucatan peninsula at night. Southerly winds may be enhanced over sections of the north-central and NE Gulf from Wed through Fri night associated to the aforementioned surface trough, or to possible low pressure that forms from the trough. $$ GMZ040-112045- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 439 AM EDT Mon Jul 11 2022 .TODAY...SW winds 10 to 15 kt.
