Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1005 UTC Sun Nov 29 2020

Tropical Weather Discussion for the eastern Pacific Ocean from
the Equator to 32N, east of 140W. The following information is
based on satellite imagery, weather observations, radar, and
meteorological analysis.

Based on 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0930 UTC.

...INTERTROPICAL CONVERGENCE ZONE/MONSOON TROUGH...

The monsoon trough extends from 08N78W to 06N100W to 10N120W to 
07N129W. ITCZ continues from 07N129W to beyond 07N140W. Scattered
moderate convection is noted from 06N to 12N between 87W and 103W,
and from 05N to 13N between 107W to 119W.

OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF MEXICO...

A broad ridge prevails west of Baja California, anchored by high
pressure of 1026 mb centered near 35N130W. Fresh to strong NW 
winds in the Gulf of California are expected to continue through 
today, with seas expected to build to 6-7 ft from these winds. 
Gentle to moderate northerly winds will prevail west of the Baja 
California peninsula, with stronger NE winds shooting through 
gaps between the higher elevations of Baja California, and 
extending up to 100 nm offshore.

A strong cold front expected to move across the Gulf of Mexico 
today will induce gale force winds across Tehuantepec beginning 
Mon afternoon. Winds are then expected to diminish below gale 
force by mid day Tue with conditions gradually improving in the 
region Tue night into Wed.

OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF CENTRAL AMERICA, COLOMBIA, and 
WITHIN 750 NM OF ECUADOR...

Fresh NE to E winds will pulse each night in the Papagayo region.
Moderate S to SW winds are expected elsewhere south of 10N. 
Moderate cross-equatorial swell in the waters west of Central 
America will subside Sun through Tue. 

REMAINDER OF THE AREA...

A ridge extends across the waters west of Baja California to 
near the Revillagigedo Islands. The pressure gradient between 
the ridge and lower pressure within the monsoon trough, and in 
the vicinity of the ITCZ, is supporting moderate to fresh trade 
winds north of 10N and west of 120W. Seas are generally 6-8 ft 
across this area. The large NW swell across the area continues to
subside today, and will slowly decay through Monday. Another 
pulse of NW swell is forecast to reach 30N140W early Mon, with 
larger NW swell moving southeast into the area Thu.
