000 FZNT24 KNHC 060211 OFFNT4 Offshore Waters Forecast for the Gulf of Mexico NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 1010 PM EDT Sun May 5 2019 Offshore Waters Forecast 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. GMZ001-061415- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 1011 PM EDT Sun May 5 2019 .SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from Appalachicola to 27N88W, where it becomes stationary to 26N92W and to inland southern Texas. The combination of the front and a rather mid to upper- level trough over the western Gulf continues to result in numerous showers and scattered thunderstorms over much of the Gulf, except for the NW part. This activity is likely producing strong gusty winds and frequent lightning. The stationary front will begin to slowly move southeastward across the eastern Gulf as a weak cold front Mon through Tue while weakening. A high pressure ridge will build northeast of the region through Wed night, then shift east-southeast Thu through Fri night as a weak cold front approaches eastern Texas. Diurnal trough development over the Yucatan Peninsula will support pulses of fresh to locally strong winds in the SW Gulf Mon through Thu. Areas of haze from ongoing agricultural fires in Mexico could reduce visibilities in the western Gulf and the Bay of Campeche through early next week. $$ GMZ011-061415- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 1011 PM EDT Sun May 5 2019 .OVERNIGHT...E to SE winds 10 to 15 kt.
