Synopsis for Caribbean Sea, and Tropical N Atlantic from 07N to
19N W of 55W
1045 AM EDT Thu Apr 2 2026
.SYNOPSIS...A broad western Atlantic ridge continues along about
34N and into the SE U.S. this morning, and will change little
through Sun morning. The pressure gradient between this surface
ridge and the Colombian low will support fresh to strong winds and
rough seas offshore Colombia through Sat night. This pattern will
also support fresh to strong NE to E winds and moderate to rough
seas in the lee side of Cuba, the Windward Passage, and south of
Hispaniola through Fri night before winds and seas diminish there
over the weekend.
