Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
832 PM PDT Thu Sep 19 2024

.SYNOPSIS...The Pacific ridge will remain in place and fluctuate
into the upcoming weekend. Gentle to moderate northwest to north
winds over the Baja California offshore waters will increase to
fresh speeds Fri evening and continue through late Sat night,
then diminish to gentle to moderate speeds afterward into Mon
night. Ongoing moderate to fresh SW winds in the northern Gulf of
California will diminish to gentle speeds Sat and then prevail
through Tue night. An active monsoon trough will support
mainly moderate to fresh W to SW winds across the outer SW
Mexican offshore waters Fri night through Tue night. Looking
ahead, an area of low pressure could form well to the southwest
of the SW coast of Mexico late this weekend. Environmental
conditions appear conducive for some slow development of this
system thereafter as it slowly moves generally northward.
Regardless of development, strong winds and rough seas are
forecast to affect the outer offshore waters SW of Cabo San Lucas
by late Tue.
