NAVTEX Marine Forecast
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL
334 PM EDT Wed Mar 30 2022

...Please refer to Coastal Waters Forecasts (CWF) available
through NOAA Weather Radio and other means for detailed
Coastal Waters Forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...Strong southerly flow, with frequent gusts to gale
force, are expected across much of the basin north of 22N, with 
these hazardous marine conditions gradually diminishing and 
improving from west to east through tonight. A strong pressure 
gradient between high pressure over the western Atlantic and a 
deepening low pressure over Texas and NE Mexico supports these 
wind speeds. A cold front in the Texas coastal waters will 
extend from the Florida Big Bend to near Tuxpan, Mexico by Thu 
evening, becoming stationary while drifting northward through 
Sat. Southerly return flow will dominate by the end of the 
weekend into early next week.
