Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
1248 AM PST Tue Jan 27 2026
.SYNOPSIS...Storm-force N winds are blowing across the
Tehunatepec region while gale-force winds extend downwind near
12N, and fresh to near gale-force NE to E winds extend to near
09N. Peak seas within the strongest winds are 29 ft. Gusty winds
may reach hurricane-force through this morning. Large seas
generated from this strong gap wind event will spread well away
from the Tehuantepec area, with seas 12 ft or greater reaching as
far south as 07N by Wed morning. Winds are forecast to diminish
below storm-force later this morning, but strong gale-force winds
of 40 to 45 kt will persist through the late afternoon hours.
Gale conditions will then continue through Thu morning. Seas
generated from this gap wind event will continue to propagate
well away of the Tehuantepec region, and affect the offshore
waters of Guatemala and El Salvador with seas 12 ft or greater
through Wed. Seas are forecast to subside and winds significantly
diminish by Thu evening, however another strong gap wind event
is forecast to begin Fri night and continue over the weekend.
Otherwise, moderate to fresh NW winds are expected in the Gulf of
California through Fri night as a high pressure system settles
over the SW of the United States.
