Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
713 PM PDT Mon Mar 17 2025

.SYNOPSIS...Strong high pressure over eastern Mexico will
continue to support gale force winds in the Gulf of Tehuantepec
into early Tue. Seas are peaking around 20 ft this evening.
Conditions will improve through the day Tue and Tue night, but
more gale-force gap winds are likely to return Thu through early
Fri morning. Meanwhile, locally rough seas in NW swell offshore 
Baja California and SW Mexico will quickly be reinforced later 
tonight into Tue as additional swell arrives behind a cold front.
This cold front will cross northern waters tonight, and bring 
some fresh to strong NW winds behind it that will continue 
offshore Baja California and in portions of the Gulf of 
California into Wed, then persist in the central and southern 
Gulf through Thu, with locally rough seas there. Seas offshore 
Baja California may build to as high as 12 to 15 ft Tue and Tue 
night. Moderate to fresh winds will prevail offshore Baja 
California for the end of the week into the weekend, supporting 
continued rough seas.
