Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
107 AM PST Tue Dec 3 2024

.SYNOPSIS...Robust ridge over the central United States 
continues to produce strong to gale-force N winds in the Gulf of 
Tehuantepec. The strongest winds are expected today into Wed, 
with the weather pattern persisting into the weekend. Winds will 
diminish below gale force Wed night. Rough to very rough seas 
will accompany these winds, with peak seas near 15 ft expected. 
Elsewhere, high pressure over the eastern Pacific will lead to 
mainly moderate NW winds and moderate seas across the remainder 
of the Mexico offshore waters this week. Winds will diminish this
weekend.
