000 FZPN27 KNHC 111646 OFFPZ7 Offshore Waters Forecast NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 846 AM PST Wed Dec 11 2024 Offshore Waters Forecast for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico Seas given as significant wave height, which is the average height of the highest 1/3 of the waves. Individual waves may be more than twice the significant wave height. PMZ001-120500- Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico 846 AM PST Wed Dec 11 2024 .SYNOPSIS...The most significant gap wind event thus far of the season will occur across the Gulf of Tehuantepec today through Fri morning as a strong cold front sweeps southeastward across the Gulf of Mexico and southeastern Mexico, followed by building high pressure. Winds will rapidly increase to strong gale-force by this afternoon, and briefly increase further to storm-force late this afternoon through evening. Seas will quickly build to 18 to 22 ft this evening and tonight. Gale-force winds and high seas are expected to extend to near 300 NM from the Tehuantepec coast by this evening. Gales are then forecast to persist through Thu evening. Winds will gradually diminish to strong to near- gale force strength Thu night and continue to pulse through early next week. Elsewhere, a weakening pressure gradient between high pressure in the Great Basin of the United States and troughing in northwestern Mexico will lead to subsiding gale-force winds in the Gulf of California later this morning. Seas of 10 to 12 ft will slowly subside with the winds. Winds will diminish further to moderate speeds late tonight into Thu morning. Winds will also gradually diminish across the Baja California offshore waters and the waters offshore of southwestern Mexico this evening through Thu. A new cold front moving through the eastern Pacific off the coast of California will lead to moderate to locally fresh N to NW winds and rough seas north of Punta Eugenia Thu night into Fri. Looking ahead, high pressure building into the region from the NW this weekend will support moderate to locally fresh N to NW winds north of Cabo Corrientes. $$ PMZ009-120500- Mexico Border S to 30N within 60 nm of shore- 846 AM PST Wed Dec 11 2024 .TODAY...NW winds 10 kt in the afternoon.
