Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
207 AM PDT Sun Aug 31 2025

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure will remain NW of the area and
maintain a modest ridge across the Baja California waters
through Tue. This pattern will produce moderate NW to N winds
across the Baja waters through early next week. A tropical wave
approaching Tehuantepec tonight will produce active weather and
fresh to locally strong easterly winds as it moves westward on Sun.
An area of low pressure is expected to form from this system
within the next day or two, and it is likely to become a tropical
depression by the middle of next week while moving west-
northwestward or northwestward at 10 to 15 kt just offshore of
the southwestern coast of Mexico.
