.SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong winds will pulse offshore Veracruz
Mexico through at least Fri night. A trough of low pres is
producing a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms
over portions of the central and western Gulf of Mexico. A broad
area of low pres is expected to form over the south-central or
SW Gulf of Mexico this weekend. Gradual development is possible
after the low develops, and a tropical or subtropical depression
or storm could form during the early or middle portions of next
week while the low moves slowly eastward. Regardless of
development, scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are
expected over most of the basin this weekend. Fresh to strong
winds are expected to begin to materialize over the NE and north
central Gulf late Sat, then spread to the north-central and
western Gulf sections early next week. These winds are expected
to reach near gale speeds over some sections of the central and
NE Gulf Tue and Tue night, with some potential of gale force
speeds. Expect building seas with these winds. Mariners are
urged to check the latest forecasts for updated information on
winds and seas especially from late Sun into early next week.
