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...Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms will
continue over the N Gulf of Mexico for the next couple of days
in association with a stationary frontal boundary. A reinforcing
cold front is expected to move into the NW Gulf tomorrow
afternoon, reach from the Florida panhandle to the SW Gulf by
Sat afternoon, and become stationary from the Big Bend of
Florida to the central Gulf and to the SW Gulf late Sun into
Mon. The front will be followed by fresh to strong NE winds,
except for possible strong to near gale N to NW winds offshore
Veracruz Sat through Mon night. Looking ahead, a tropical wave
currently located over the W Caribbean Sea may show some
development late in the weekend into early next week after the
system emerges over the SW Gulf of Mexico.
