000 FZNT24 KNHC 171506 OFFNT4 Offshore Waters Forecast for the Gulf of Mexico NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 1006 AM EST Thu Nov 17 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. GMZ001-180315- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 1006 AM EST Thu Nov 17 2022 .SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from the Upper Florida Keys to Cancun, Mexico and continues as a stationary front to the central Bay of Campeche. The cold front will move just SE of the basin by this evening while the stationary portion becomes a sharp surface trough over the SW Gulf. Gale force NW winds will prevail within about 120 nm of the Mexican coast near Veracruz through tonight while strong winds prevail elsewhere over the SW Gulf. The surface trough over the SW Gulf will continue in that location into the upcoming weekend as the next cold front moves into the NW Gulf of Mexico. This pattern is likely to bring strong to gale force winds for much of the NW and west-central Gulf over the weekend. These conditions will spread to the central and SW Gulf as the weekend progresses. $$ GMZ040-180315- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 1006 AM EST Thu Nov 17 2022 ...GALE CONDITIONS POSSIBLE SAT THROUGH SAT NIGHT... .TODAY...NE winds 20 to 25 kt in the afternoon.
