Synopsis for the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas
420 AM EDT Mon Oct 26 2026
.SYNOPSIS...A tight pressure gradient between a robust ridge
over the NW Atlantic and the eastern United States and a
stationary front extending from near Bermuda to the NW Bahamas
supports a large area of strong to gale-force NE-E winds across
the western and central offshore zones, along and north of the
stationary front. Very rough seas to 19 ft are occurring north of
the front. The portion of the front east of 70W is expected to
begin to drift southeastward Tue through Wed night as a cold front
before becoming stationary again late this week. The aforementioned
ridge will shift slowly eastward into the north Atlantic during this
time. The gale-force winds will diminish tonight, however, fresh to
strong winds and rough to very rough seas in NE swell to the north
of the front will persist through the period. Mariners are urged to
remain alert to these dangerous marine conditions and take the
necessary precautions to avoid these affected areas.
