Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
716 AM PST Fri Mar 6 2026

.SYNOPSIS...Strong high pressure NW of the forecast region will
continue to support moderate to fresh NW to N winds across the
offshore forecast waters of Baja California through tonight. A
weak low pressure is expected to form just offshore Baja
California on Sat, then shift slowly eastward into early next
week. This will relax the pressure gradient over the offshore
waters of Baja California, leading to improving marine conditions
through the weekend. Gentle winds and moderate seas, in SW swell,
are expected in the Gulf of Tehuantepec through the forecast
period.
