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...High pressure will dominate into early next week. A
broad area of low pressure may form by the early to middle
portions of next week over the NW Caribbean and adjacent
portions of Central America. Thereafter, gradual development of
this system is possible, and a tropical depression could form as
the system moves slowly to the north or northwest over the
northwestern Caribbean Sea and into the southern Gulf of Mexico
through the end of next week. There is a medium chance of
tropical cyclone formation in the next seven days. Regardless of
development, winds and seas will start increasing across the SE
Gulf early next week.
