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 N to NE winds and moderate to rough
seas follow a cold front moving from Spring Hill, Florida to the
central Gulf near 25N90W where it transitions to a stationary
front that connects to a 1021 mb low pressure just SE of the
coast of southern Texas. The cold front will reach the Florida
Straits by early Sat and then dissipate while the stationary
portion of the front lift northward as a warm front before
dissipating Sat night. Broad high pressure will build north of
the area behind the front into Mon, supporting moderate to fresh
E to SE winds across the basin. Looking ahead, a stronger cold
front is forecast to enter the far northwest Gulf Tue night,
followed by strong to gale-force winds and rapidly building
seas. The front is forecast to reach from Venice, Florida to the
northern Yucatan peninsula to the eastern Bay of Campeche by Wed
afternoon and exit the basin Wed evening.
