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 cold front extends from 25N81W in far southern
Florida westward to 25N98W in far northern Mexico. The front
will continue to progress southward, reaching the Florida
Straits and the Yucatan Channel tonight. Strong to Near Gale
force NE winds and rough seas of 8 to 11 ft will continue along
and behind the front across much of the basin. The front is
expected to stall along the Yucatan Channel into this upcoming
weekend. The pressure gradient between this front and building
high pressure over the southeastern United States will support
fresh to strong NE winds over much of the basin this weekend
into early next week.
