Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
539 PM PST Tue Jan 27 2026
.SYNOPSIS...High pressure over the Gulf of America will continue
to funnel winds across the Chivela Pass producing N to NE gales
over the Gulf of Tehuantepec through Thu morning. These gap winds
are also large in extent as they reach 12N100W with fresh to
strong E winds. There will be a brief reprieve over the Gulf of
Tehuantepec from Thu afternoon into Fri afternoon, while the gap
winds reduce to moderate to fresh. But a new strong cold front
pushing across the Gulf of America will herald another round of
Tehuantepecer gale conditions beginning Fri night. These winds
may peak as severe gales Sat afternoon and evening. And by the
end of the forecast period on Sun, N to NE gales are likely to
still be occurring. Elsewhere, high pressure over the U.S. Great
Basin is helping to force moderate to fresh NW winds across the
Gulf of California before diminishing Sat night. Large NW swell
will reach the waters west of Baja California Norte on Thu and
Fri.
