Seas given as significant wave height, which is the average

.SYNOPSIS...A weak ridge will remain in place over the N Gulf
waters into Sat morning allowing for gentle to moderate winds
for most of the Gulf of Mexico. Fresh NE winds are expected near
and to the northwest of the Yucatan Peninsula tonight due to
local effects. Looking ahead, a well-defined tropical wave,
Invest-AL97, moving across the central Caribbean will impact
portions of the southeastern Gulf and Straits of Florida with
active weather Sat through Sun. A tropical depression is likely
to form this weekend over the Straits of Florida or the eastern
Gulf of Mexico near the Florida Peninsula.
