The following information is based on satellite imagery, weather observations, radar, and meteorological analysis. Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through 2150 UTC. ...INTERTROPICAL CONVERGENCE ZONE/MONSOON TROUGH... The monsoon trough extends from 13N89W to 09N132W. The ITCZ continues from 09N132W to beyond 08N140W. Scattered moderate convection is noted from 08N-13N between 96W-104W.

Scattered moderate is from 08N to 13N between 96W to 104W. Scattered moderate isolated strong from 07N to 11N between 135W and 140W. OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF MEXICO... A strong cold front extending from 30N112W to 28N114W starts to dissipate from 28N114W to 24N140W will continue to induce fresh to strong northwest to westerly gap winds in the northern Gulf of California through tonight, and fresh NW winds across the offshore waters of Baja. Large NW swell associated with the front will rapidly increase combined seas west of the Baja California through Sun. Peak seas may reach as high as 14 ft off Baja California Norte by Sun. Gulf of Tehuantepec: Northerly gap winds will diminish across the region tonight, with associated seas subsiding to less than 10 ft by this evening. Swell generated in this region is producing a large area of high seas that are combining with SW cross-equatorial swell. Gentle winds will persist south of Cabo Corrientes outside of the Gulf of Tehuantepec. NW winds are expected to remain at 10-15 kt from Puerto Vallarta to Manzanillo through the weekend, with seas subsiding to 4-6 ft Sat and Sun as SW swell subsides. OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF CENTRAL AMERICA, COLOMBIA, and WITHIN 750 NM OF ECUADOR... Tropical Depression Eta has moved further northeast into the NW Caribbean Sea this afternoon allowing for SW wind flow into Central America from El Salvador to Costa Rica to subsided. Seas are in the 6 to 8 ft range in this area, in a mix of SW cross- equatorial swell and NW swell spreading out from Tehuantepec. Moderate to locally fresh SW winds will prevail across the region through Sun, then subsiding Sun night and Mon. REMAINDER OF THE AREA... A cold front moving into the northern waters extends from 30N112W to 28N114W and starts to dissipate from 28N114W to 24N140W. The front will continue to push southward through Sun, then stall and dissipate along 20N on Mon. Fresh to strong N to NE winds and large NW swell will accompany the front through early next week. This swell will mix with the lingering swell from Odalys and produce seas greater than 8 ft for most of the area north of 12N and west of 110W by early next week. The remnant low of Post-Tropical Cyclone Odalys is a well defined low-level cloud swirl near 15N127W. The remnants of Odalys will move west-southwest through Sunday and gradually weaken to a trough as it reaches cooler waters and drier more stable air. Ridging dominates north of 20N, anchored by strong 1032 mb high Pressure well to the north of the area. Moderate to fresh NE trade winds persist from 10N to 20N, while moderate to fresh N to NE winds prevail N of 20N and W of 118W, ahead of the cold front. $$ Torres
