Synopsis for Caribbean Sea and Tropical N Atlantic from
07N to 19N W of 55W
.SYNOPSIS...Moderate to fresh NE winds are expected across the
western Caribbean through Sun behind a cold front stalling from
southeastern Cuba through the Gulf of Honduras, before the cold
front dissipates Sun night. Elsewhere, moderate to locally fresh
E winds will prevail over the eastern basin. High pressure will
build over eastern Mexico early next week, and low pressure over
northern Colombia will strengthen. The increasing pressure
gradient between these features will lead to fresh to locally
strong NE to E winds across much of the basin Sun night through
at least Tue. Pulsing strong winds are expected through the
Windward Passage, downwind of southwestern Cuba and offshore of
Colombia, and rough seas will be possible near strong winds.
Winds and seas will slowly diminish by mid to late week.

Synopsis for the the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas
.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extending from 31N63W to eastern Cuba
will progress eastward through early next week, and moderate NW
winds will occur behind the front through Sun. Farther east,
fresh SE to S winds will occur north of 25N and east of 60W
through Sun morning along the periphery of a 1023 mb high in the
central Atlantic. The high will weaken and drift eastward early
next week. South of 20N, moderate to briefly fresh trades will
prevail into the middle of next week. Troughing will develop east
of the Bahamas Sun then drift westward toward the east coast of
Florida by late Mon, while low pressure develops off the coast of
NE Florida. Strengthening high pressure in the central United
States will drift eastward, and the tightening pressure gradient
between these features will result in widespread fresh to strong
NE winds and very rough seas north of 22N between 60W and 72W Mon
morning, with winds and seas developing farther west across the
Bahamas by Mon afternoon. Winds and seas will diminish Tue night
into early Wed.
