Individual waves may be more than twice the significant wave height. GMZ001-160830- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 322 PM EST Tue Nov 15 2022 .SYNOPSIS...A cold front extending from Pensacola, Florida to Tuxpan, Mexico will reach from Tampa Bay, Florida to the central Bay of Campeche by Wed morning. The front will reach the SE Gulf on Thu morning. Fresh to strong northerly winds follow the front with gale force winds occurring near Tampico, Mexico. The gales will migrate southward to near Veracruz, Mexico this evening into tonight. By Wed, strong high pressure will build over Texas, tightening the gradient across the Gulf region. As a result, expect increasing winds and building seas across the basin, with gale force winds over the SW Gulf, including the Veracruz area, late Wed through Thu night. Very rough seas will build over the SW Gulf by late Thu. Strong winds will persist in the SW Gulf through Fri before the next cold front enters the basin on Sat. Gales are possible in the western Gulf with this front. $$ GMZ040-160830- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 322 PM EST Tue Nov 15 2022 ...GALE CONDITIONS POSSIBLE SAT NIGHT... .TONIGHT...N to NE winds 15 to 20 kt.
