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 for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A trough extends southwestward from an elongated
area of weak low pressure near the east coast of Florida to near
Sarasota, Florida and to the northern Yucatan Peninsula.
Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are southeast of
the trough impacting most of the southeastern Gulf waters and
waters just offshore the northern Yucatan Peninsula. The trough
is expected to gradually weaken through late Fri while the low
pressure moves northeastward to offshore of the southeastern
U.S. Looking ahead, a broad area of low pressure is forecast to
form over the southwestern Gulf of Mexico this weekend.
Environmental conditions appear conducive for gradual
development of this system and a tropical depression could form
during the early or middle part of next week while it moves
slowly westward or west-northwestward. Increasing winds and
building seas are expected with this system.
