000 FZPN28 KNHC 011632 OFFPZ8 Offshore Waters Forecast NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 932 AM PDT Wed Nov 1 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. PMZ101-020445- Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Central America, Colombia, and within 750 nm of Ecuador 932 AM PDT Wed Nov 1 2023 .SYNOPSIS...Tropical Storm Pilar is centered near 12.5N 90.5W at 1500 UTC, moving west at 6 kt. Estimated minimum central pressure is 996 mb. Maximum sustained wind speed is 50 kt with gusts to 60 kt. Pilar will move west-southwestward this afternoon through the weekend, and reach near near 12.2N 91.8W this evening, near 11.6N 94.2W Thu morning, near 10.6N 97.3W Thu evening before exiting the area. Pilar will change little in intensity. Elsewhere, mainly moderate monsoonal winds will prevail through the forecast period, locally fresh to strong in the Gulf of Panama by the end of the week. A storm-force gap wind event in the Gulf of Tehuantepec will generate very large NW swell moving into the offshore waters of Guatemala through the end of the week. These large seas from the NW will merge with seas propagating away from Pilar to create very confused and hazardous boating conditions. $$ PMZ111-020445- Guatemala and El Salvador to 250 nm offshore- 932 AM PDT Wed Nov 1 2023 ...TROPICAL STORM WARNING... .TODAY...TROPICAL STORM CONDITIONS.
