000 FZPN28 KNHC 081538 OFFPZ8 Offshore Waters Forecast NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 838 AM PDT Thu Jun 8 2023 Offshore Waters Forecast for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Central America, Colombia, and within 750 nm of Ecuador Seas given as significant wave height, which is the average height of the highest 1/3 of the waves. Individual waves may be more than twice the significant wave height. PMZ101-090345- Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Central America, Colombia, and within 750 nm of Ecuador 838 AM PDT Thu Jun 8 2023 .SYNOPSIS...A rather weak pressure gradient across the forecast waters will allow for moderate or weaker winds over the offshore waters through the forecast period. Additional pulses of SW swell will reach the waters between Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands on Fri, building seas to 5-7 ft. The general synoptic scale pattern could be setting up to favor increased convection over the region through the weekend. In fact, computer models suggest abundant tropical moisture across much of Central America and western Colombia under a southwesterly wind flow. $$ PMZ111-090345- Guatemala and El Salvador to 250 nm offshore- 838 AM PDT Thu Jun 8 2023 .TODAY...W winds 10 to 15 kt.
