000 FZNT24 KNHC 270904 OFFNT4 Offshore Waters Forecast for the Gulf of Mexico NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 404 AM EST Wed Nov 27 2024 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. GMZ001-272115- Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico 404 AM EST Wed Nov 27 2024 .SYNOPSIS...A stationary front extending from near Apalachicola, Florida to 28N92W and will lift back N as a warm front today. A cold front is forecast to enter the NW Gulf waters Thu morning. Moderate to fresh southerly winds will develop over the western Gulf through tonight ahead of this front, which will reach from Cedar Key, Florida to near Tampico, Mexico early on Fri morning, and from the Straits of Florida to near Veracruz, Mexico by early Sat morning. The front will exit the basin later on Sat. Fresh to strong northerly winds and building seas will follow this front. Gusty winds with occasional gusts to gale force may occur over the west-central and SW Gulf in the wake of the front on Fri. High pressure in the wake of the wake of the front will shift E through Sun night as a trough develops in the far western Gulf near South Texas and NE Mexico. The resulting gradient should bring fresh to strong easterly winds and building seas to those waters. $$ GMZ040-272115- NW Gulf including Stetson Bank- 404 AM EST Wed Nov 27 2024 .TODAY...S to SW winds 15 to 20 kt.
