Synopsis for the the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas .SYNOPSIS...Major Hurricane Beryl is approaching Jamaica near 17.1N 76.1W at 11 AM EDT, moving west-northwest at 16 kt. Maximum sustained winds are 125 kt with gusts to 150 kt, and the minimum central pressure is 952 mb. Beryl is expected to maintain a W-NW motion across the Caribbean and weaken slowly, moving inland over the Yucatan Peninsula Fri morning near 19.7N 88.2W, where it will weaken to a tropical storm. Beryl will then move NW over the Gulf of Mexico and strengthen to a hurricane over the Gulf Sat through Sun. Otherwise, central Atlantic high pressure will extend a ridge southwestward to N Florida to support gentle to moderate winds and slight to moderate seas north of 25N, with moderate to fresh trades and mainly moderate seas south of 25N. Winds and seas will be locally strong north of Puerto Rico, Hispaniola and into the Windward Passage through the next several days as Beryl moves through the Caribbean. A decaying cold front will sink south of 31N through early Thu, then stall and linger near 30N through the end of the week.
