Coastal Waters Forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...A tight pressure gradient between high pressure over
eastern Mexico and a persistent trough in the western Gulf is
allowing for gale-force winds offshore Veracruz. These winds
will diminish to strong speeds late tonight, and the resultant
rough to very rough seas will slowly decay through Sat.
Otherwise, fresh to strong northerly winds over the central and
southeastern Gulf will veer to east to southeast over the
western Gulf tonight and Sat as high pressure shifts eastward
across the southeastern U.S. Winds are forecast to become fresh
to locally strong ahead of low pressure that will be developing
in central Texas. By the end of the weekend and into early next
week, more tranquil marine conditions are forecast basin-wide as
the pressure gradient weakens. Moderate to fresh southeast to
south winds are expected to develops over the western Gulf
starting Tue night as the high pressure becomes centered over
the NE Gulf, then shifts to east of the basin afterward.
