Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
104 PM PST Wed Nov 12 2025

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure over the Gulf of America is supporting
strong to near gale-force northerly gap winds in the Gulf of
Tehuantepec and these winds will pulse to gale force tonight and
Thu night. Rough to very rough seas accompany these winds downstream.
Winds and seas will gradually diminish through late Fri as the
high pressure north of the area weakens and shifts eastward.
Farther north, a cold front will move across Baja California and
the Gulf of California late Thu through Sat. Expect fresh to
strong SW gap winds across the northern Gulf of California ahead
of the front late Sat into early Sun. Fresh to strong NW winds
and rough seas to 12 ft will follow the front off Baja California
late Thu into Sat, before subsiding Sun.
