Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1005 UTC Mon Aug 3 2026

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
information is based on satellite imagery, weather observations,
radar, and meteorological analysis.

Based on 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0730 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

The axis of a tropical wave is near 85W, 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 108W, 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 126W, 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 11N84W to 10N110W to 13N120W to 
06N135W. The ITCZ extends from 06N135W to 05N140W. Scattered 
moderate and isolated strong convection is noted from 04N to 10N
between 82W and 126W.

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

Gentle to moderate winds prevail 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 low pressure over the Colorado River Valley 
will support moderate to occasionally fresh winds over the 
northern Gulf of California through the early part of the week. 
Elsewhere, a moderate pressure gradient will support mostly 
gentle to moderate winds across the offshore waters of Mexico. 
Long- period NW swell over the waters off Baja California Norte 
will start to subside Tue. Fresh to strong gap winds and building
seas are expected across the Gulf of Tehuantepec toward the end 
of the week.

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

Moderate to locally 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, with occasionally strong winds pulsing by mid 
week. 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...

Fresh to near gale force winds, and rough seas, are over the far
NW portion of the discussion waters due to the remnant low of 
Genevieve, centered just west of the area. Elsewhere over the 
discussion waters, gentle to moderate winds and moderate seas 
prevail. 

For the forecast, large northerly swell will bring rough seas
over the waters off Baja California Norte north of 27N and east 
of 130W through the early part of the week before subsiding. New 
large southerly swell may build south of the Equator and west of 
100W beginning Tue night.
