Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
146 AM PDT Wed Jul 16 2025

.SYNOPSIS...Pulsing moderate to fresh SW winds over the northern
Gulf of California will prevail through this morning, then
moderate to fresh will prevail through the forecast period.
Pulsing moderate to fresh N gap winds will occur in the Gulf of
Tehuantepec through Thu night as high pressure builds over
central Mexico. Winds will reach fresh to strong speeds on Fri
into the weekend as the pressure gradient tightens further,
resulting in rough seas. Farther south, moderate E winds,
generated by gap winds in the Gulf of Papagayo, will occur well
offshore of southern Mexico through midweek, then returning this
weekend. Moderate seas will prevail across the area, except for
slight seas in the Gulf of California.
