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 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1430 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

The axis of a tropical wave is near 79W extending from the
Caribbean southward, moving westward at 5 to 10 kt. Scattered
moderate to strong convection is noted E of 82W.

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

The monsoon trough extends from 10N84W to 11N100W to 07N140W. 
Two lows are embedded within the monsoon trough. One is a 1007 mb
low near 08N127W, and the other a 1007 mb low near 08N136W. 
Scattered moderate convection is noted from 05N to 12N between 
95W and 113W. Scattered moderate to strong convection is noted 
along the monsoon trough in the vicinity of the lows from 03N to 
09N between 122W and 140W. 

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

A weak pressure gradient prevails across the area. With the weak
pressure gradient, light to gentle winds prevail over the
discussion waters, except gentle to locally moderate winds off 
Cabo San Lucas and near the Revillagigedo Islands. Seas are in 
the 5-6 ft range over the open waters off Mexico, and 3 ft or 
less in the Gulf of California. 

For the forecast, light to gentle winds will prevail across the 
waters of Baja California through tonight, increasing slightly 
thereafter. Gentle to occasionally moderate S to SW winds are 
expected inside the Gulf of California and near the tip of Baja 
California Sur. Light to gentle winds will dominate the waters 
between Cabo Corrientes and Tehunatepec. 

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

Moderate to fresh, locally strong winds prevail in the Gulf of 
Papagayo. Gentle to moderate winds are found between the 
Galapagos Islands and Colombia, as well as in the Gulf of Panama.
Gentle winds are found elsewhere. Seas are in the 5-7 ft range 
between the Galapagos Islands and Colombia, and 4-6 ft elsewhere. 

For the forecast, gentle to moderate winds and moderate seas will
prevail across the offshore waters through the weekend. Winds 
may pulse to moderate to locally fresh in diurnal offshore flow 
in the immediate Gulf of Papagayo and near the Gulf of Guayaquil 
into early next week.

...REMAINDER OF THE AREA...

Broad troughing prevails across the waters N of 15N. A weak
pressure gradient is supporting mainly light to gentle winds N of
the monsoon trough. Two areas of low pressure are embedded within
the monsoon trough, one is a 1007 mb low near 08N127W, and the 
other a 1007 mb low near 08N136W. Moderate to fresh winds are S 
of the monsoon trough and W of 124W, reaching strong speeds S of 
two areas of low pressure. Gentle to moderate winds are 
elsewhere S of the monsoon trough. Northerly swell that has 
impacted the northern waters continues to subside, with seas 
reaching to 8 ft covering a small area N of 28.5N between 131W and 
138W. Mainly moderate seas are found elsewhere, except rough seas to 
9 ft in the waters south of the two areas of low pressure.

For the forecast, the northerly swell will subside further 
today. Fresh to occasionally strong winds, and rough seas, are 
expected near the low pressure areas along western portion of the
monsoon trough into early next week. Elsewhere, moderate or 
weaker winds, and moderate seas, will prevail across the open 
waters.
