Marine Weather HF Voice Broadcast for the Gulf of Mexico

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

Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A ridge extending from the western Atlantic westward
to across the Gulf of Mexico will change little through Fri. The
pressure gradient will tighten between the ridge and low
pressure forming over inland Mexico leading to some increase in
winds and seas over the NW and N-central Gulf Wed night into
Thu. Fresh to locally strong northeast to east winds will
develop each evening near the northern Yucatan Peninsula, then
weaken overnight as the associated trough moves offshore. Patchy
fog is expected over portions of the NW Gulf, especially during
the overnight and early morning hours into Tue.
