PMZ001-201615- Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico 905 PM PDT Sat Sep 19 2026 .SYNOPSIS...Invest EP99 is centered near 12N106W. Environmental conditions are conducive for development, and a tropical depression is expected to form in the next day or so as the system moves generally northward off the coast of southwestern Mexico. There is a high chance of tropical cyclone formation in the next 48 hours. Regardless of development, this system is forecast to bring gale to storm force winds and rough to very rough seas over the offshore waters from Guerrero to Jalisco tonight through Thu night. In anticipation of tropical cyclone development, a storm warning has been issued for this area. Otherwise, moderate to locally fresh NW winds will prevail across the offshore Baja California waters through early Fri morning when conditions in Baja Calaifornia Sur offshores will start to deteriorate due to the proximity of Invest EP99. $$ PMZ009-201615- Mexico Border S to 30N within 60 nm of shore- 905 PM PDT Sat Sep 19 2026 .TONIGHT...NW winds 10 to 15 kt.
