PMZ001-102115- Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico 112 AM PST Fri Jan 10 2025 .SYNOPSIS...Strong N gap winds will redevelop late tonight in the Gulf of Tehuantepec and quickly strengthen to gale force overnight, and continue into Sat evening before winds rapidly diminish into Sun. Rough seas will accompany the winds, with peak seas near 13 ft. Elsewhere, pulsing fresh to strong NW to NE winds will occur offshore of Baja California and through the Gulf of California through Sat. Locally fresh N winds will expand farther south to offshore of southwestern Mexico this morning through early Sat. Rough seas currently offshore of Baja will slowly subside into Sat. A new long-period N swell associated with a cold front moving through Southern California will push into the Baja California Norte waters Sat into early next week, producing rough to locally very rough seas. Slight to moderate seas will prevail elsewhere. Looking ahead, a more prolonged gap wind event is expected in the Gulf of Tehuantepec next week, with fresh to strong N winds returning Mon morning, reaching gale-force Mon evening, then continuing through the middle of next week. Very rough seas are likely with these winds. $$ PMZ009-102115- Mexico Border S to 30N within 60 nm of shore- 112 AM PST Fri Jan 10 2025 .TODAY...NE to E winds 15 to 20 kt, shifting to NW 10 kt in the afternoon.
