Individual waves may be more than twice the significant wave height. GMZ001-120745- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 344 PM EDT Tue Apr 11 2023 .SYNOPSIS...A broad surface trough reaches northwestward from the Florida Keys to the northwestern Gulf, triggering widespread showers and thunderstorms. Fresh to strong easterly winds with higher seas to its north will persist across the northeastern Gulf, and near the Florida Keys through tonight. A low pressure system is expected to form near the central Gulf along the surface trough later tonight, then become better organized and lift northward through Thu. Fresh to strong winds and rough seas are expected at the north-central Gulf, and to persist across the northeastern Gulf through Thu morning. Once the low has moved inland, marine conditions at both locations will improve by Thu afternoon. For the weekend, a cold front is forecast to enter the western Gulf which will cause winds and seas to increase. $$ GMZ040-120745- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 344 PM EDT Tue Apr 11 2023 .TONIGHT...NE winds 10 to 15 kt.
