Tropical Weather Discussion for the eastern Pacific Ocean from
03.4S to 30N, east of 120W including the Gulf of California, and
from the Equator to 30N, between 120W and 140W. The following

...SPECIAL FEATURES...

Gale warning: Post-Tropical Cyclone Genevieve is centered near 24.8N 139.5W at
02/2100 UTC, moving west-northwest at 11 kt. Estimated minimum central
pressure is 1009 mb. Maximum sustained wind speed is 35 kt with 
gusts to 45 kt. Peak seas are near 16 ft or 5 m. No significant 
shower or thunderstorm activity is evident near the center of 
this low pressure system. Genevieve will become a remnant low and
move to 25.4N 141.0W Mon morning then gradually dissipate 
through mid week as it continues to move west- northwest.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

The axis of a tropical wave is along 82W, north of 02N, moving 
westward at 10 to 15 kt. Nearby convection is discussed in the 
ITCZ/Monsoon Trough section below.

The axis of a tropical wave is near 106W, moving westward at 
around 10 to 15 kt. Nearby convection is discussed in the 
ITCZ/Monsoon Trough section below.

The axis of a tropical wave is near 124W/125W, from 02N to 18N, 
moving westward around 10 kt. Nearby convection is discussed in 
the ITCZ/Monsoon trough section below. 

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

The monsoon trough extends from 11N85W to 08N95W to 10N120W. The
ITCZ extends from 09N125W to 07N135W to 07N140W. Scattered
moderate convection is active from 04N to 10N between 80W and
90W, and from 10N to 15N between 95W to 125W.

...OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF MEXICO...

Moderate to fresh winds are over the northern Gulf of 
California. Gentle to moderate winds prevail elsewhere across 
the region. Moderate seas dominate the open waters off Mexico, 
with slight seas in the Gulf of California. 

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between high pressure west of
the area and lowering pressure over the Colorado River Valley
will support fresh SW winds and building seas over the northern
Gulf of California through the early part of next week.
Elsewhere, a moderate pressure gradient will support mostly
gentle to moderate NW winds across the offshore waters of
Mexico. Long- period NW swell will move into the waters off Baja
California Norte tonight then start to subside Tue. Looking
ahead, expect fresh to strong gap winds and building seas across
the Gulf of Tehuantepec Thu and Fri. 

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

Fresh winds and moderate seas prevail over and downstream the 
Gulf of Papagayo. Gentle to moderate winds are found between the 
Galapagos Islands and Ecuador. Light to gentle winds and moderate
seas are noted elsewhere. 

For the forecast, moderate to fresh winds will pulse across the 
Papagayo region tonight, and again by mid week with rough seas. 
Moderate or weaker winds and moderate seas in SW swell are 
expected across the remainder of the waters through the period. 

...REMAINDER OF THE AREA...

Please refer to the Special Features section for information on
Post-Tropical Storm Genevieve.

For waters not impacted by Genevieve, high pressure is centered 
just northwest of the area. Gentle to moderate winds and 
moderate seas prevail over the remainder of the discussion 
waters. Large northerly swell off California is likely to push 
southward into the waters off Baja California Norte north of 27N 
and east of 130W into early next week. New large southerly swell 
may build south of the Equator and west of 100W beginning Tue 
night.
