PMZ001-221330- Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico 522 PM PST Thu Dec 21 2023 .SYNOPSIS...High pressure over the W Gulf of Mexico along with lower pressures over the tropical E Pacific are forcing gale force N gap winds through the Gulf of Tehuantepec. As the high weakens and move east, these winds will fall below gale force Fri, then diminish to moderate to fresh by Sat night. A cold front, followed by fresh W to NW winds, is approaching the waters offshore Baja California. This front will move SE through waters W of Baja California as well as most of the Gulf of California through Fri before gradually dissipating into the weekend. Elsewhere, winds across the area will be moderate or weaker. At the extended range, high pressure building over the U.S. Great Basin should funnel fresh to strong NW winds over the Gulf of California Mon through Tue night. Large NW swell will propagate southeastward across the waters west of Baja California through Fri before diminishing Sat. Looking ahead, another set of large NW swell will move into the Baja California Norte waters Sun through early next week. $$ PMZ009-221330- Mexico Border S to 29N within 60 nm of shore- 522 PM PST Thu Dec 21 2023 .TONIGHT...S winds 15 to 20 kt.
