Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
147 PM PST Tue Nov 12 2024

.SYNOPSIS...A dissipating cold front extends from the
southwestern U.S. to across northern Baja California. High
pressure building in the wake of the front will support fresh NW
winds off Baja California Norte through late tonight. This will
be followed by large NW swell, reaching Guadalupe Island by this
evening, then offshore of Cabo San Lazaro by Wed night, and the
Revillagigedo Islands by late Thu. A second slightly stronger
front will move into the waters of Baja California Norte Fri
through Sat. Reinforcing NW swell will follow the front off Baja
California Norte Thu night through Fri. Looking ahead, a cold
front moving across the southwestern Gulf of Mexico will bring
additional gap winds into Gulf of Tehuantepec late Wed through
Sat night, reaching near- gale force with rough seas Thu through
most of Fri. A slighter tighter gradient could allow for these
winds to reach gale force. Check the latest forecast.
