000 FZNT25 KNHC 122136 OFFN04 NAVTEX Marine Forecast NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 536 PM EDT Fri Aug 12 2022 ...Please refer to Coastal Waters Forecasts (CWF) available through NOAA Weather Radio and other means for detailed Coastal Waters Forecasts... Southeast Gulf of Mexico .SYNOPSIS...Weak high pressure extending from the western Atlantic westward along 29N to the N central Gulf will sink southeast through Tue. This will allow for gentle to moderate winds over the basin to weaken to light to gentle into next week. Moderate NE to E winds will pulse to fresh during the late afternoon and evenings off the NW Yucatan peninsula through early next week. Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms associated with a low pressure trough and weak low pressure that is along it are over most of the northern Gulf waters. This system will drift west-southwestward over the NW Gulf and toward the Texas coast during the weekend. Development, if any, of this system is expected to be slow to occur. Strong gusty winds and rough seas can be expected with this activity. Meanwhile, a weak frontal boundary is expected to stall just north of the central and NE Gulf during the weekend. .TONIGHT...NE to E winds 10 kt. Seas 2 to 3 ft.

Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida .SYNOPSIS...A narrow ridge extends from the central Atlantic W-SW to northern Florida along 29N, and will weaken and sink southward through early next week as a frontal boundary moves off the eastern seaboard and begins to weaken as it stalls from across NE Florida east-northeastward to north of 31N78W. Moderate to fresh E winds S of 25N will veer to the SE and weaken to gentle early Sat and change little into next week. Light to gentle variable winds are expected elsewhere through the period. A tropical wave will reach the southeast forecast waters by early Sat, bringing a slight increase in winds and seas over those waters through early Mon. A cold front may move over the waters northeast of NE Florida late Tue, then stall and weaken through Wed night. .TONIGHT...E to SE winds 5 to 10 kt S of 27N, and SW winds 10 kt N of 27N.
