Synopsis for the E Pacific within 250 nm of Mexico
705 AM PST Thu Feb 19 2026
.SYNOPSIS...Ahead of a cold front, fresh to strong SW winds over
the N Gulf of California will develop tonight before diminishing
on Fri afternoon. The same cold front will also accelerate NW
winds to fresh and locally strong along the Pacific waters west
of the Baja California peninsula through Fri afternoon. High
pressure building in behind the front will induce moderate to
fresh NW winds across the entire Gulf of California Sat into Sun
night. Looking ahead, a cold front pushing across the Gulf of
America will induce a strong gale-force gap wind event over the
Gulf of Tehuantepec Sun into at least Mon night. Very large seas
are likely to accompany this gap wind event, propagating well
away from the source region.
