--------------------------------------------------------------------------- TROPICAL WEATHER DISCUSSION (EASTERN PACIFIC AREA) MESSAGES T1T2: AX A1A2: PZ Date: 2026-06-28 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Message File: T_AXPZ20KNHC280246_C_KWBC_20260628024706_9109880-7014-TWDEP.txt ****0000005209**** AXPZ20 KNHC 280246 TWDEP Tropical Weather Discussion NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 0405 UTC Sun Jun 28 2026 Tropical Weather Discussion for the eastern Pacific Ocean from 03.4S to 30N, east of 120W including the Gulf of California, and from the Equator to 30N, between 120W and 140W. The following information is based on satellite imagery, weather observations, radar, and meteorological analysis. Based on 0000 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through 0230 UTC. ...TROPICAL WAVES... A tropical wave axis is along 90W north of 02N to inland Guatemala, moving westward at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is noted from 04N to 09N between 87W and 94W. The tropical wave previously analyzed along 97W has been absorbed by the next wave described below. A tropical wave has its axis along 118W from 03N to 20N, moving westward at around 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is noted from 04N to 16N between 110W and 124W. Scatterometer data depicted fresh to strong east to southeast winds east of the wave axis to near 110W. Seas are up to 9 ft with these winds. A tropical wave axis is analyzed along 135W from 12N to 25N, moving W at 10 to 15 kt. No significant convection is noted at this time. ...INTERTROPICAL CONVERGENCE ZONE/MONSOON TROUGH... The monsoon trough extends from 1007 mb low pressure in northwest Colombia to 08N78W to 08N91W. The ITCZ continues from that point to 08N117W, then resumes W of a tropical wave near 08N120W to 07N140W. Aside from the convection related to the tropical waves described above, scattered moderate convection is noted within 200 nm on either side of the ITCZ. ...OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF MEXICO... The pressure difference between high pressure ridging over the Gulf of America and lower pressure in southeastern Mexico, southward to the monsoon trough over the eastern Pacific is supporting fresh to strong gap winds in the Gulf of Tehuantepec. Seas up to 8 ft prevail with these winds. In the Gulf of California, moderate to fresh south to southwest winds are over the northern portion east of 114W due to a tight pressure gradient. Seas are 2 to 4 ft over the Gulf, except for slightly higher seas of 3 to 5 ft in the southern portion. Light to gentle winds are elsewhere over the Mexican offshore waters along with seas of 5 to 7 ft in long- period south to southwest swell. For the forecast, the fresh to strong north to northeast gap winds will continue in the Gulf of Tehuantepec region through Sun morning. Elsewhere, winds and seas across the Mexican offshore waters should be calm through early next week. Northwest swell with seas to 8 ft is expected to move into the far northern waters off Baja California Norte beginning early Mon, and linger into Tue afternoon. ....OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF CENTRAL AMERICA, COLOMBIA, AND WITHIN 750 NM OF ECUADOR... Fresh to strong northeast gap winds are across the Gulf of Papagayo and off the southern coast of Nicaragua. Latest scatterometer satellite data shows seas of 8 to 9 ft downstream of these winds, from 09N to 11N between 88W and 95W. Moderate or weaker winds are elsewhere. Seas are 7 to 9 ft in long-period southerly swell over the equatorial waters as detected by multiple altimeter satellite data passes, and 5 to 6 ft in southwest swell over the remainder of the offshore waters. For the forecast, fresh to strong gap winds and rough seas will prevail across the Gulf of Papagayo through early Tue. These conditions may spread as far west as 105W through Sun night before diminishing. Farther south, large southerly swell moving into the equatorial waters will continue through early next week. ...REMAINDER OF THE AREA... Broad ridging dominates the remainder of the area north of 20N. The moderate pressure gradient between the ridge and lower pressure in the vicinity of the monsoon trough/ITCZ is resulting in moderate to fresh trade winds from 10N to 28N. Seas are 7 to 9 ft W of 112W due to the combination of long-period north to northeast swell with trade wind generated waves. To the south, SE swell is bringing seas to 9 ft S of 02N between 87W and 120W. Elsewhere, winds across the open Pacific waters are moderate or weaker. Seas are 6 to 8 ft in mixed north and southwest swell. For the forecast, the tropical wave near 118W is forecast to undergo possible gradual development during the next few days and a tropical depression could form around the middle of next week while the wave moves generally westward to west-northwestward. Environmental conditions are forecast to become less conducive for development by the second half of the week as the system moves over the western portion of the eastern North Pacific. Outside of this system, little change in winds are expected for the next several days. Large southerly swell moving through the far south-central waters is expected to begin to decay during the early part of the upcoming week. $$ ERA ########################### END OF MESSAGE SET ############################ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Message File: T_AXPZ20KNHC280839_C_KWBC_20260628083929_32440682-3976-TWDEP.txt ****0000005092**** AXPZ20 KNHC 280839 TWDEP Tropical Weather Discussion NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 1005 UTC Sun Jun 28 2026 Tropical Weather Discussion for the eastern Pacific Ocean from 03.4S to 30N, east of 120W including the Gulf of California, and from the Equator to 30N, between 120W and 140W.

The following information is based on satellite imagery, weather observations, radar, and meteorological analysis. Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through 1545 UTC. ...TROPICAL WAVES... A tropical wave has its axis along 95W north of 03N to the Gulf of Tehuantepec region moving westward at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated convection is within 180 nm either side of the wave from 03N to 06N. A tropical wave has its axis along 121W from 03N to 18N, moving westward at around 15 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated strong convection is seen from 11N to 17N between 110W and 120W. Scattered moderate convection is between the wave and 128W from 10N to 15N. An overnight scatterometer data pass indicated a swath of moderate to fresh east to southeast winds east of the wave axis to near 110W from 10N to 16N. Seas with these winds are 6 to 8 ft. A weakening tropical wave axis is along 139W from 12N to 23N, moving westward near 15 kt. No significant convection is noted at the present time with this wave. ...INTERTROPICAL CONVERGENCE ZONE/MONSOON TROUGH... The monsoon trough extends from 1007 mb low pressure in northwest Colombia west-southwestward to across the border between Costa Rica and Panama, and continues to the coast at 09N84W and to 07N100W to 11N113W to 11N121W and to 07N129W, where it transitions to the ITCZ to 07N129W to 05N134W and to beyond 05N140W. Numerous moderate to isolated strong convection is within 180 nm south of the ITCZ between 129W-137W. Scattered moderate to isolated strong convection is from 05N to 10N between 111W-118W. Scattered moderate convection is within 60 nm south of the trough between 126W-129W. ...OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF MEXICO... The pressure difference between high pressure ridging over the Gulf of America and relatively lower pressure in southeastern Mexico, southward to the monsoon trough over the eastern Pacific is supporting fresh to strong gap winds in the Gulf of Tehuantepec. Seas up to 8 ft prevail with these winds. In the Gulf of California, moderate to fresh southwest winds are over the northern portion from 30N to 31N along with seas of 2 to 4 ft. The pressure gradient is slightly tighter over that portion of the Gulf due to the presence of the diurnal trough. Seas over the rest of the Gulf are also 3 to 4 ft, except at the entrance, where higher seas of 4 to 6 ft in long-period south to southwest swell are present. Latest scatterometer satellite data passes generally reveal light to gentle winds are elsewhere over the Mexican offshore waters along with seas of 4 to 6 ft in long- period south to southwest swell. For the forecast, the fresh to strong north to northeast gap winds will continue pulsing in the Gulf of Tehuantepec region through late Mon morning. Elsewhere, winds and seas across the Mexican offshore waters are expected to remain rather calm into the early part of the week. Northwest swell with seas to 8 ft is expected to move into the far northern waters off Baja California Norte beginning early Mon, and linger into Tue afternoon. ....OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF CENTRAL AMERICA, COLOMBIA, AND WITHIN 750 NM OF ECUADOR... Fresh to near-gale northeast gap winds are across the Gulf of Papagayo and off the southern coast of Nicaragua. Overnight altimeter satellite data passes indicated seas of 8 to 9 ft downstream of these winds, from 09N to 11N between 87W and 94W. Moderate or weaker winds are elsewhere. Seas are 6 to 8 ft in long-period southerly swell over the equatorial waters as detected by multiple altimeter satellite data passes, and 5 to 6 ft in long-period southwest swell across the remainder of the offshore waters. For the forecast, fresh to near-gale gap winds and rough seas will prevail across the Gulf of Papagayo through early Tue. These conditions may spread as far west as 105W through tonight before diminishing. Farther south, large southerly swell moving into the equatorial waters will continue through early next week. ...REMAINDER OF THE AREA... Broad ridging dominates the remainder of the area north of about 20N. The moderate pressure gradient between the ridge and lower pressure in the vicinity of the monsoon trough/ITCZ is supporting moderate to fresh trade winds over most of the area north of 10N and west of 119W. Seas are 6 to 8 ft west of 112W due to the combination of long-period north to northeast swell with trade wind generated waves. To the south, southeast swell is inducing seas up to 10 ft south of 02N between 87W and 120W as noted in various altimeter satellite data passes from the overnight and early morning hours. Elsewhere, winds are mostly moderate or weaker. Seas are 6 to 8 ft in mixed north and southwest swell. For the forecast, the tropical wave near 121W is forecast to undergo possible gradual development during the next few days and a tropical depression could form by the middle of this week while the system moves generally westward then northwestward. Environmental conditions are forecast to become less conducive for development by late week as the system encounters increasing shear and cooler waters. Outside of this system, little change in winds are expected for the next several days. Large southerly swell moving through the far south-central waters is expected to begin to decay during the early part of the upcoming week. $$ Aguirre ########################### END OF MESSAGE SET ############################
