257. Where would you expect to find climatological and meteorological tables for the Gulf Coast area?

Climatological and meteorological tables for the Gulf Coast are found in the reference tables at the back of U.S. Coast Pilot #5, which covers the Gulf of Mexico region. Coast Pilot volumes contain region-specific sailing directions and reference tables, and Coast Pilot #5 specifically addresses the Gulf of Mexico. Other options are incorrect because they are too broad, irrelevant, or exclude published nautical references.
