Marine Weather HF Voice Broadcast for the Gulf of America

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...A weak cold front is along the Texas coast and is
forecast to drift into the NW Gulf today. The moderate to fresh
southerly winds will decrease to gentle to moderate later today
as high pressure off New England departs eastward. A stronger
reinforcing cold front will overtake the aforementioned weak
front early Wed, then move into the NW Gulf waters. The cold
front will then sweep to the southeast of the basin by Thu night
into Fri, followed by fresh to strong northeast winds and
building seas into the weekend. Scattered showers and
thunderstorms may accompany the frontal boundary.
