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 N to NE winds are expected this morning across
the northern Gulf in the wake of a dissipated cold front moving
southward through the eastern Gulf and central Florida.
Otherwise, expect moderate N to NE winds over the remainder of
the Gulf today as high pressure builds modestly into the basin
behind a cold front moving into the northwestern Caribbean. This
high pressure centered over the central United States this
morning extends southward into the NW Gulf, and will drift
slowly eastward through the middle of next week, resulting in
moderate E to SE winds late Sun into next week.
