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

.SYNOPSIS...The pressure gradient between high pressure N of the
basin and relatively lower pressures in the Caribbean and in
northern South America will maintain fresh to strong trades and
moderate to rough seas over most of the central and west-central
Caribbean through the forecast period. Winds will pulse to fresh
to strong speeds near the Gulf of Honduras during the evening
and overnight hours, with greater coverage of these winds
expected to begin on Mon, with passage of a tropical wave.
Moderate to fresh winds will prevail elsewhere, except in the
lee of Cuba and the SW Caribbean where gentle to moderate winds
are expected through early next week. Mostly fresh trades will
remain over the Tropical N Atlantic zones through early next
week. Moderate to locally rough seas with these winds will
gradually subside through tonight.
