Synopsis for Caribbean Sea and Tropical N Atlantic from
07N to 19N W of 55W

.SYNOPSIS...The moderate pressure gradient between high pressure
centered north of the islands and lower pressures in northern
South America will sustain moderate to fresh easterly trade
winds and moderate seas over the central and eastern Caribbean
through the middle of next week. Moderate or lighter winds and
slight to moderate seas will prevail elsewhere. A persistent
NE-E swell will support rough seas in the Atlantic passages of
the Lesser Antilles through the forecast period. Looking ahead,
a cold front may approach the northwestern Caribbean early next
week.

Synopsis for the the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas

.SYNOPSIS...A weakening cold front located east of Bermuda is
slated to move through the central Atlantic today and Sat,
leading to fresh winds and rough seas north of 27N and east of
65W through tonight. Meanwhile, fresh to locally strong SW winds
and moderate seas will develop off NE Florida today ahead of a
cold front that will enter the area tonight. These winds and
seas will push east quickly Sat into Sat night. The front will
extend from near Bermuda to central Florida Sun morning and
dissipate Sun night. Looking ahead, a complex low pressure
system and strong cold front may move through the northwestern
tropical Atlantic by early next week, supporting widespread
fresh to strong winds and building seas ahead of and behind the
front.
