NOAA is asking for input on these forecast zones (see below).
Offshore Waters Forecast: Our new proposed Offshore Waters Forecast will provide a detailed 5 day forecast. We plan on going from near the coast out to 250 NM from the Mexico/California border all the way to Ecuador (including 2 zones in the Sea of Cortez/Gulf of California), broken up in to about a dozen
or so "zones" total based on climatology, political boundaries, jump points, etc.
The 5 day forecast will be broken down in to 12 hour forecast periods for the first 60 hours, then in to 24 hour forecast periods for Days 3-5. At a minimum we will provide A range of Winds (e.g. NW to N Winds 10 to 15 KT) and Seas (e.g. Seas 3 to 5 FT building to 4 to 6 FT late), and weather conditions (e.g.
Scattered Showers and Isolated Thunderstorms). There are plans to provide more detailed wave information (swell directions, wave periods, etc.).
Each zone is described with its location (coordinates), a name (e.g., US MEXICO BORDER TO PUNTA FALSA), and description (“EAST PACIFIC WITHIN 250 NM OF THE US MEXICO BORDER TO PUNTA FALSA).
NOAA proposes to solicit opinions on the location of zones.
