Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
737 PM PDT Thu May 23 2024

.SYNOPSIS...A surface ridge will begin to retreat through the
weekend as the high pressure NW of the area weakens. Moderate to
locally fresh NW to N winds will continue over the Baja
California offshore waters through Mon night. Winds in the
northern Gulf of California will pulse to strong on Fri night
as low pressure temporarily deepens over the Colorado River
Valley. Winds will prevail moderate to fresh through the
weekend over the remainder of the Gulf. Light haze from smoke
caused by agricultural fires over Mexico could reduce
visibilities over most of the Mexico offshore waters through Thu.
