Coastal Waters Forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure extending from the western Atlantic
westward to the eastern Gulf will change little over the next
few days. Fresh to strong southerly winds in the western Gulf
will increase to strong to near gale- force today as they
quickly expand eastward to the central Gulf. Peak seas are
forecast to reach to 11 ft during the afternoon. These winds and
seas are ahead of a frontal system that will stall across Texas.
High pressure and associated fresh return flow is expected
across most of the basin Thu, before diminishing to moderate
speeds Fri. However, fresh return flow will persist on Fri in
the SW Gulf and off the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula. Gentle
to moderate E to SE winds are expected across the basin Sat
through Sun night as the western extension of Atlantic high
pressure will reach westward along 30N. Nocturnal fresh to
strong E to SE winds are expected along the northern Yucatan
Peninsula through the period as the Yucatan Peninsula trough
moves offshore each evening.
