Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
157 AM PDT Sun May 3 2026

.SYNOPSIS...A late-season Tehuantepec gap wind event will last 
from this morning through early Mon morning, as a ridge builds 
across the eastern slopes of the Sierra Madre Mountains in 
Mexico, behind a frontal boundary across the Bay of Campeche. 
These gap winds will reach near-gale to gale-force later this 
morning through about midnight tonight, along with rough seas. 
As the ridge shifts eastward on Mon, both winds and seas should 
subside quickly and allow marine conditions to rapidly improve. 
In addition, fresh S to SW winds in the northern Gulf of 
California will pulse to between strong and near-gale force 
tonight and Mon night. Fresh to strong NW winds are also expected
near Cabo San Lucas Mon night. Elsewhere, mainly gentle to 
moderate winds and slight to moderate seas will prevail.
