..OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF MEXICO
A SURFACE TROUGH HAS BEEN ANALYZED FROM OVER BAJA CALIFORNIA SUR
TO THE NORTHERN GULF OF CALIFORNIA. FRESH TO STRONG SE WINDS ARE
IN THE NORTHERN GULF OF CALIFORNIA DUE TO A TIGHT PRESSURE
GRADIENT BETWEEN THE TROUGHING AND RIDGING TO THE EAST. MODERATE
TO FRESH SE WINDS ARE IN THE CENTRAL GULF, WITH GENTLE TO
MODERATE IN THE SOUTHERN GULF. SEAS ARE 3 TO 5 FT IN THE GULF OF
CALIFORNIA, EXCEPT TO 6 FT IN THE NORTHERN GULF. ELSEWHERE,
RIDGING EXTENDS ACROSS THE WATERS OFFSHORE OF BAJA CALIFORNIA
NORTE. WINDS ARE MODERATE OR LESS ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF THE
OFFSHORE WATERS OF MEXICO. SEAS ARE MAINLY 3 TO 5 FT ACROSS THE
OPEN WATERS, EXCEPT TO 6 FT IN THE GULF OF TEHUANTEPEC, AND TO 7
FT WELL OFFSHORE BAJA CALIFORNIA NORTE.
FOR THE FORECAST, FRESH TO STRONG S TO SE WINDS WILL OCCUR
ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN GULF OF CALIFORNIA INTO EARLY SAT
AS TROUGHING PREVAILS OVER THE REGION. MODERATE TO LOCALLY FRESH
WINDS WILL THEN PULSE IN THIS AREA INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.
MODERATE N WINDS WILL PULSE IN THE GULF OF TEHUANTEPEC, POSSIBLY
INCREASING TO MODERATE TO FRESH NEXT WEEK, WITH MODERATE OR
WEAKER WINDS ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF THE WATERS. MAINLY MODERATE
SEAS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH AT LEAST EARLY NEXT WEEK.
...OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF CENTRAL AMERICA, COLOMBIA,
AND WITHIN 750 NM OF ECUADOR...
MODERATE TO FRESH E TO NE WINDS ARE OCCURRING IN THE GULF OF
PAPAGAYO AS LOW PRESSURE PREVAILS OVER NORTHERN COLOMBIA. GENTLE
TO LOCALLY MODERATE WINDS ARE NOTED ELSEWHERE NORTH OF THE
MONSOON TROUGH. TO THE SOUTH, MODERATE S TO SW WINDS PREVAIL. A
LONG PERIOD S TO SW SWELL IS MOVING THROUGH THE REGIONAL WATERS,
PROMOTING SEAS OF 4 TO 7 FT, WITH LOCALLY ROUGH SEAS TO 8 FT
OCCURRING SOUTH OF THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS.
FOR THE FORECAST, FRESH TO LOCALLY STRONG E TO NE WINDS WILL
PULSE IN THE GULF OF PAPAGAYO THROUGH SAT MORNING AS LOW PRESSURE
DOMINATES THE SOUTH-CENTRAL CARIBBEAN. WINDS WILL DIMINISH FOR
THE REST OF THE WEEKEND BEFORE WINDS RESTRENGTHEN EARLY NEXT
WEEK. ELSEWHERE, MODERATE TO OCCASIONALLY FRESH S TO SW WINDS
WILL OCCUR SOUTH OF THE MONSOON TROUGH INTO NEXT WEEK. A LONG
PERIOD S TO SW SWELL WILL PROMOTE ROUGH SEAS OVER THE EQUATORIAL
WATERS TONIGHT, WITH SEAS SUBSIDING THIS WEEKEND, THEN BUILDING
BACK TO ROUGH THERE EARLY NEXT WEEK. SEAS WILL BE MAINLY
MODERATE ELSEWHERE.
..REMAINDER OF THE AREA
A RIDGE EXTENDS FROM HIGH PRESSURE WELL NORTH OF THE AREAS
SOUTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE WATERS NORTH OF THE ITCZ AND MONSOON
TROUGH. MAINLY MODERATE WINDS PREVAIL NORTH OF 10N AND WEST OF
120W, EXCEPT LOCALLY FRESH WEST OF 130W, WITH SEAS OF 5 TO 7 FT
IN MAINLY MIXED SE AND NE SWELLS. MODERATE TO LOCALLY FRESH SE
WINDS ARE SOUTH OF 04N AND WEST OF 105W. A LONG PERIOD MIXED SW
AND SE SWELL IS MOVING THROUGH THE EQUATORIAL WATERS, PROMOTING
ROUGH SEAS OF 8 TO 9 FT SOUTH OF 04N AND WEST OF 850W. WINDS ARE
MAINLY MODERATE OR WEAKER ELSEWHERE WITH SEAS OF 5 TO 7 FT,
DOMINATED BY SOUTHERLY SWELL.
FOR THE FORECAST, MODERATE TO LOCALLY FRESH N TO NE WINDS AND
MODERATE SEAS ARE EXPECTED NORTH OF THE MONSOON TROUGH AND ITCZ
WEST OF 125W INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK AS RIDGING PREVAILS OVER THE
EASTERN PACIFIC. ELSEWHERE, ROUGH SEAS OVER THE EQUATORIAL WATERS
WILL SLOWLY SUBSIDE TONIGHT, BEFORE ANOTHER MODEST SWELL PRODUCES
ROUGH SEAS ACROSS THE EQUATORIAL WATERS SAT NIGHT INTO EARLY
NEXT WEEK. MODERATE TO FRESH SE WINDS WILL OCCUR SOUTH OF THE
