Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
220 PM PDT Tue Mar 26 2024

.SYNOPSIS...Gale conditions are expected in the Tehuantepec
region Thu morning through Fri morning with seas building to
12-14 ft. A ridge W of the Baja California will support mostly
gentle to moderate northerly winds. Seas in this area are going
to gradually subside from north to south, dropping below 8 ft by
Wed. Fresh to locally strong NW winds are expected in the central
and south parts of the Gulf of California Wed and Wed night due
the pressure gradient between the aforementioned ridge to the W
and lower pressures over the Sierra Madre mountains and central
Mexico. This weather pattern will also support fresh to strong
winds and rough seas in the vicinity of Cabo Corrientes this
evening through Wed evening. A strong cold front is forecast to
enter the offshore waters of Baja California Norte on Sat,
bringing with it increasing winds and a new swell event.
