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...A broad trough of low pressure is producing a large
area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms from the
southwestern Caribbean Sea into the southern Gulf of Mexico.
Fresh to strong NW to N winds and rough seas are expected W of
the trough over the SW Gulf, including the Veracruz area,
through at least Fri. Environmental conditions could support
some gradual development of this system, and a tropical
depression could form over the weekend as the broader
disturbance moves fully into the Gulf of Mexico. Interests along
the U.S. Gulf Coast should continue to monitor the progress of
this system. Elsewhere, gentle to moderate winds and slight to
moderate seas will prevail trough Fri. Looking ahead, increasing
winds and building seas are forecast for the NE and
north-central Gulf during the upcoming weekend.
