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...Moderate to locally fresh N to NE winds are expected
over the northern Gulf into this afternoon, in the wake of a
cold front extending from central Florida to near the Texas-
Mexico border. The front will progress southeastward through
tonight before dissipating. Elsewhere, moderate to occasionally
fresh E to NE winds will occur in the eastern Bay of Campeche and
offshore of the Yucatan Peninsula each night through Sat.
Otherwise, moderate or weaker winds and slight seas are expected
over the remainder of the basin through Sat. Looking ahead, the
next cold front is slated to enter the northern Gulf on Sun, and
increasing winds and building seas will occur in the wake of the
front.
