A broad area of low pressure has formed a few hundred miles southwest of Acapulco, Mexico. Some additional slow development is possible this weekend and early next week while the system moves slowly east-southeastwards. This will allow for the monsoon trough to lift even farther northward toward the Gulf of Tehuantepec, with winds to the west of 90W increasing to fresh to strong, leading to building seas of 8 to 12 ft at times, highest late weekend into early next week. Meanwhile, fresh to strong SW winds are expected to develop west of Colombia Fri and shift into the Gulf of Panama Fri night and Sat before diminishing. Seas are likely build to around 8 ft there with these winds. $$ PMZ111-140845- Guatemala and El Salvador to 250 nm offshore- 132 PM PDT Thu Jun 13 2024 .TONIGHT...W winds 15 to 20 kt.
