Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
212 AM PDT Wed Jul 3 2024

.SYNOPSIS...Additional scattered showers and thunderstorms are
expected to develop along and offshore the coasts of southern
and western Mexico through the end of the week due to increasing
moisture from the close proximity of the monsoon trough. Further
adding to the increase in moisture is a broad area of low
pressure currently along the monsoon trough with disorganized
showers and thunderstorms. It could form into a tropical
depression within a day or two while it moves northward to
northwestward remaining offshore of the southwestern coast of
Mexico. However, this system should move over cooler waters on
Friday, preventing further development thereafter. Otherwise,
the gradient between a surface trough along the Baja California
Peninsula and high pressure west of the area will induce
moderate to fresh southeast winds along the Gulf of California
today.
