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...Gale force winds over a portion of the SW Gulf that
includes within 60 nm offshore Veracruz will diminish to just
below gale force early tonight. These winds are expected to
diminish to fresh to strong Thu, with little through Sat. Seas
to around 12 ft with these winds will slowly subside through the
end of the week. Otherwise, a broad trough of low pressure is
producing disorganized areas of showers and thunderstorms over
the northwestern Caribbean Sea and the southwestern Gulf of
Mexico. 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, and for just about the entire entire basin
early next week.
