Seas given as significant wave height, which is the average

Synopsis for the Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A ridge will dominate the Gulf waters through at
least Sun, supporting moderate to fresh winds mainly over the
western Gulf due to the pressure gradient between the ridge and
lower pressures over Mexico. Fresh to strong NE to E winds will
pulse near the northern and western portions of the Yucatan
peninsula during the late afternoons and at night through Sun.
Haze due to agricultural fires over Central America and Mexico
will continue for at least the next couple of days reducing
visibility at times.
