PMZ001-030715- Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico 1115 AM PST Thu Feb 2 2023 .SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong N winds in the Gulf of Tehuantepec will rapidly increase to gale-force late tonight, then strong gale-force during the day Fri, and then storm-force Fri evening into the early overnight hours. Winds will diminish back to strong gale-force by late Fri night into early Sat, then diminish below gale-force early Sun, and eventually moderate or weaker by Tue. Winds will increase slightly to fresh to strong in the central and southern Gulf of California tonight through early Fri afternoon due to a tightening pressure gradient, then moderate to fresh there through early Sat. A decaying cold front will approach Baja California by the end of the weekend with high pressure building behind it which will spread fresh to strong NW-N winds offshore Baja California from Cabo San Lazaro northward Sun night through Mon night. Similar winds will spread south through the Gulf of California. Winds will be mainly moderate or weaker elsewhere through the forecast period. Meanwhile, the NW swell will decay through the end of the week. A new set of larger NW swell will arrive offshore Baja California with the fresh to strong winds. $$ PMZ009-030715- Mexico Border S to 29N within 60 nm of shore- 1115 AM PST Thu Feb 2 2023 .TONIGHT...N winds 10 kt.
