000 FZPN27 KNHC 122224 OFFPZ7 Offshore Waters Forecast NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 224 PM PST Thu Dec 12 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. PMZ001-131030- Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico 224 PM PST Thu Dec 12 2024 .SYNOPSIS...The most significant gap wind event thus far of the season continues across the Gulf of Tehuantepec today. Strong high pressure across eastern Mexico is building southward behind a stalling front stretching from central Cuba through northern Honduras and central Guatemala. This pattern is supporting gale- force N winds from the Tehuantepec coast to near 15N, with strong to gale-force winds then extending 300 NM offshore of the coast. Seas likely range from 12 to 16 ft in the area of gales. Gales will continue into Fri morning, then strong to near-gale force winds will continue Fri afternoon through Mon morning as strong high pressure persists across the Gulf of Mexico and the NW Caribbean. Elsewhere, a weakening cold front approaching from the northwest will produce moderate to locally fresh NW winds north of Punta Eugenia this afternoon and evening into Fri. Rough seas associated with the cold front will propagate southeastward on Fri, with rough seas occurring north of 27N by Fri evening, and north of 24N by Sat morning. Peak seas of 10 to 11 ft will be possible north of Punta Eugenia by Fri evening. High pressure will build modestly across the area waters this weekend in the wake of the cold front, and troughing will prevail in the Gulf of California. As a result, moderate to locally fresh NW to N winds will develop in the Gulf of California and off the coast of southwestern Mexico by early Sat, and across the waters offshore of Baja California Sat afternoon into early Sun. Looking ahead, a fresh long-period NW swell will produce rough seas offshore of Baja California this weekend into early next week. $$ PMZ009-131030- Mexico Border S to 30N within 60 nm of shore- 224 PM PST Thu Dec 12 2024 .TONIGHT...NW winds 10 to 15 kt.
