Synopsis for Caribbean Sea, and Tropical N Atlantic from 07N to
19N W of 55W
426 AM EDT Wed Jul 8 2026
.SYNOPSIS...The pressure gradient between central Atlantic high
pressure and lower pressures over northern South America will
continue to result in fresh to near gale trades over the central
Caribbean for the next several days. Peak winds to gale-force
just north of Colombia will diminish to just below gale-force
this morning. These winds will again pulse back up gale-force at
night over these same waters through the rest of the period,
except on Thu and Sun. Gale-force winds are also expected in the
Gulf of Venezuela Fri night and Sat night. Trades over the Gulf of
Honduras will pulse to fresh to strong speeds in the late
afternoons and evenings through the weekend. A fast-moving
tropical wave should reach the Lesser Antilles this evening,
bringing fresh to strong trades over the eastern Caribbean Thu
through Fri night. Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
may accompany this wave.
