Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
PMZ001
722 AM PST Sat Feb 22 2025
A 1033 mb high pressure system over NE Texas forces strong to gale-force northerly winds across the Gulf of Tehuantepec. These winds will diminish below gale-force later this morning. Rough seas are expected near and downstream of the strongest winds. Conditions will improve early next week. Elsewhere, moderate to fresh NW winds will develop tonight and continue into Mon night in the central and southern Gulf of California and offshore of southwestern Mexico due to a tightening pressure gradient. Seas to 5 ft will accompany these winds. Looking ahead, moderate to fresh NW winds and NW swell will affect the offshore waters of Baja California Norte Mon night into Wed, with seas peaking near 10 ft. The decaying swell will spread into the Baja California Sur waters late in the week.
