Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico PMZ001 View original source

639 PM PST Sat Dec 21 2024

The pressure gradient between high pressure over eastern Mexico and low pressure within the eastern north Pacific monsoon trough will support gale-force gap winds into the Gulf of Tehuantepec through Sun night. The area of high pressure will shift east away from the area by early Mon, which will loosen the pressure gradient, leading to improving conditions early next week. Elsewhere, gentle to moderate mainly N winds will increase slightly this weekend as a NE Pacific high pressure ridge builds toward the region. Winds will pulse to moderate to fresh at times offshore Baja California, then fresh to strong from Cabo San Lazaro northward starting Wed night. Significant NW swell will reach waters offshore Baja California Norte overnight, then spread southeastward to impact most waters by early next week. Peak seas offshore Baja California Norte may exceed 12 ft starting late tonight.
