Synopsis for the the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas

.SYNOPSIS...A surface trough extends from 31N59W to 19N69W. The
cold front north of the area will merge with the surface trough
this morning and the front will reach from near 25N55W to
Hispaniola by Sun morning, then stall and weaken over the far
southeastern part late Sun through Mon night. North swell behind
the front will build seas to a peak of 12 ft over northeast
offshore waters by Sun. Strengthening high pressure in the wake of
the front will result in fresh to strong north to northeast winds
behind the front from tonight through Sun. By late Sun, fresh
winds will prevail in the wake of the weakening front and continue
through Mon. Tranquil conditions are expected Tue as high
pressure becomes centered over the NW part of the offshore waters,
with the induced gradient supporting fresh northeast to east
winds over the southern waters.
