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...Fresh to strong winds will pulse offshore Veracruz
Mexico through at least Sat. Disorganized showers and
thunderstorms located over the western Gulf of Mexico are
associated with a trough of low pres. A broad area of low pres
is expected to form over the SW or south-central Gulf of Mexico
this weekend, and thereafter some gradual development is
possible while the low moves slowly eastward or northeastward. A
tropical or subtropical depression or storm could form during
the early to middle part of next week if the low remains
separate from a frontal boundary that is forecast to extend
across the Gulf of Mexico next week. Regardless of tropical or
subtropical development, increasing winds and building seas are
forecast including behind the frontal boundary with
thunderstorms increasing in activity and potentially impacting
most of the basin.
