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...The pressure gradient between a ridge along the Gulf
coast states and a broad area of low pressure over the Yucatan
Peninsula will support fresh to strong E to SE winds and
building seas spreading from the Yucatan Channel west-northwest
through the weekend. The system is forecast to move west-
northwestward, where conditions appear generally conducive for
further development. A tropical depression could form before the
system moves inland over Mexico early next week. Conditions are
forecast to improve across the basin Mon through Wed.
