Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
816 PM PDT Sat Apr 27 2024

.SYNOPSIS...Strong high pressure continue across the NE Pacific 
and extends a broad ridge across the Baja offshore waters. Winds
across the Gulf of California are expected to be gentle to 
moderate northwesterly over the southern and central Gulf through
Sun night. The high pressure will move east and weaken modestly 
Sun through the middle of next week, leading to weakening winds 
across the area waters. Moderate NW swell will continue across 
the waters to the west of Baja California today, then become 
reinforced late in the weekend, with seas building to 11 ft 
across the outer waters of Baja Norte, and gradually shifting 
westward and increasing, Sun night through Wed.
