000 FZPN27 KNHC 120254 OFFPZ7 Offshore Waters Forecast NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 654 PM 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. PMZ001-121500- Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico 654 PM PST Wed Dec 11 2024 .SYNOPSIS...Strong high pressure over the NW Gulf of Mexico is forcing storm-force winds across the Gulf of Tehuantepec this evening, with a large area of strong to gale-force winds and high seas extending to 300 nm southward of the coast. This is occurring behind a cold front stretching from western Cuba through the southern Yucatan Peninsula and into southern Mexico. Seas will quickly build to 18 to 22 ft this evening through tonight. Winds are expected to diminish below storm-force after midnight tonight. Gales are then forecast to persist through late Thu evening. Winds will gradually diminish to strong to near gale-force strength late Thu night and continue to pulse through into the middle of 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 diminishing winds in the Gulf of California and offshore of Baja tonight into Thu. A cold front moving through the eastern Pacific off the coast of California will lead to moderate to locally fresh NW winds and rough seas north of Punta Eugenia Thu night into Fri, followed by moderate NW swell moving into the Baja waters Fri through Sat. Looking ahead, high pressure building into the region from the NW this weekend will support moderate to locally fresh N to NW winds across the Gulf of California, offshore of Baja California and southwestern Mexico. $$ PMZ009-121500- Mexico Border S to 30N within 60 nm of shore- 654 PM PST Wed Dec 11 2024 .TONIGHT...NW winds 10 kt.
