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...Pulsing fresh to strong NE winds will occur offshore
of the Yucatan Peninsula and in the eastern Bay of Campeche
through this weekend as a trough develops daily and moves
westward. Elsewhere, fresh to locally strong SE winds will
develop west of 90W today as a low pressure system strengthens
in the central United States. By Fri, pulsing fresh to locally
strong SE winds are expected across much of the basin, including
through the Florida Straits, as the pressure gradient
strengthens between the aforementioned low and building high
pressure over the western Atlantic. Seas will slowly build
through this weekend, with rough seas possible near the strong
winds by early Sat. Looking ahead, winds and seas will slowly
diminish next week.
