Individual waves may be more than twice the significant wave height. GMZ001-072115- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 408 AM EST Tue Feb 7 2023 .SYNOPSIS...A ridge dominates the Gulf waters. The pressure gradient between the ridge and lower pressures over Texas and NE Mexico will support fresh to locally strong SE to S winds over the western Gulf today, with fresh winds spreading to the remainder of the Gulf through Wed, when another cold front is forecast to enter the NW Gulf. Fresh to strong northerly winds and building seas will briefly follow the front that will stall over the western Gulf on Thu while dissipating. A stronger cold front will enter the NW Gulf Thu evening, reach from the Florida Big Bend to Veracruz, Mexico Fri evening, and exit the basin by Sat morning. Gale conditions are possible near Tampico, Mexico early Fri afternoon, and near Veracruz, Mexico during the early evening hours. Rough to very rough seas are also expected in the wake of the front, especially over the SW Gulf. $$ GMZ040-072115- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 408 AM EST Tue Feb 7 2023 .TODAY...SE to S winds 15 to 20 kt.
