IN ADDITION TO THE WINDS AND SEAS DESCRIBED IN THE SPECIAL

ARE ACROSS THE GULF OF TEHUANTEPEC AS SEEN BY OVERNIGHT SATELLITE
SCATTEROMETER DATA. BROAD RIDGING PREVAILS ELSEWHERE OFFSHORE OF
BAJA BAJA CALIFORNIA AND TO THE NW OF EP96. THIS PATTERN IS
SUPPORTING GENTLE TO MODERATE NW TO N WINDS AND 4 TO 5 FT SEAS
ACROSS THE BAJA WATERS, AND LIGHT BREEZES WITH 1-3 FT SEAS IN
THE GULF OF CALIFORNIA.
FOR THE FORECAST, IN ADDITION TO THE IMPACTS OF THE DEVELOPING
LOW PRESSURE...EP96...DESCRIBED IN THE SPECIAL FEATURES SECTION

WATERS OF BAJA CALIFORNIA THROUGH EARLY THU, ALLOWING FOR GENTLE
TO MODERATE NW TO N WINDS TO CONTINUE ALONG WITH MODERATE SEAS IN
MIXED SWELL. IN THE GULF OF CALIFORNIA, MAINLY GENTLE WINDS WILL
PREVAIL THROUGH TONIGHT, INCREASING TO MODERATE TO LOCALLY FRESH
IN THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN PORTIONS MIDWEEK. FRESH TO STRONG
NORTHERLY WINDS WILL PULSE IN THE GULF OF TEHUANTEPEC DURING THE
WEEK AND INTO THE UPCOMING WEEKEND, STRONGEST DURING THE LATE
NIGHT AND EARLY MORNING HOURS, WITH LOCALLY ROUGH SEAS AT TIMES.
