Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Central America,
Colombia, and within 750 nm of Ecuador
217 PM PDT Mon May 27 2024

.SYNOPSIS...Gentle to moderate NE to E are expected in the
Papagayo region through Thu, increasing to moderate to fresh
speeds Tue night into Wed. Elsewhere, gentle to moderate S to SW
winds will persist south of the monsoon trough along roughly 10N
while light to gentle winds are expected north of it through Fri.
Combined seas will remain in the 3 to 5 ft range most of the
work-week as additional pulses of SW swell propagate across the
forecast region. Light haze from smoke caused by agricultural
fires over Mexico could reduce visibilities over portions of the
Central America offshore waters through the next few days.
