Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Central America,
Colombia, and within 750 nm of Ecuador
1243 AM PDT Tue Jun 11 2024

.SYNOPSIS...Monsoonal winds and associated seas and
thunderstorms will dominate the region this week. Low pressure is
expected to develop across portions of the Yucatan Peninsula,
the Bay of Campeche, and western portions of Central America Wed
and Thu. This will induce the monsoon trough to lift northward
toward the Gulf of Tehuantepec, with winds to the west of 88W
increasing to fresh to locally strong, leading to building seas
of 7 to 10 ft. Look for thunderstorm activity to also increase
during this time.
