Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
812 AM PDT Mon May 27 2024

.SYNOPSIS...The pressure gradient between high pressure west of
the region and lower pressure over central Mexico will continue
to support moderate to fresh NW to N winds and moderate seas off
Baja California mainly north of Cabo San Lazaro into mid-week.
Light to gentle winds and moderate seas in SW swell will prevail
across open waters elsewhere. Hazy conditions may persist off
southern Mexico, including the Gulf of Tehuantepec, due to
agricultural fires over southern Mexico. Looking ahead, expect
building seas with the arrival of long period NW swell beyond 90
nm off Baja California from late Wed through Fri, with combined
seas reaching 8 to 9 ft.
