Seas given as significant wave height, which is the average
height of the highest 1/3 of the waves. Individual waves may be

Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from NE Florida to 24N87W where
it becomes stationary to Mexico near 18N94W in SW corner of
Gulf. The cold front will reach the far SE waters early on
Wednesday, and move E of the area during Wednesday afternoon.
High pressure building in behind the front will usher in fresh
to strong northerly winds across the area from this morning
through Wednesday morning. These winds will diminish through
Thursday afternoon as the high pressure shifts to the NE Gulf.
The high pressure will weaken on Friday as another cold front
moves across eastern Texas, and into the NW Gulf on Friday
night. The front will then reach from the NE Gulf to near 24N86W
to NE Yucatan Peninsula by midday Saturday. High pressure will
bring another round of strong northerly flow across much of the
basin, with northerly winds expected to reach gale force in the
far SW Gulf portion.
