Marine Weather HF Voice Broadcast
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL
405 AM EDT Sun Aug 31 2025

Marine Weather HF Voice Broadcast for the Tropical N Atlantic
from 07N to 19N W of 55W, the N Atlantic from 19N to
31N W of 55W including the Bahamas, and the Caribbean Sea.

Seas given as significant wave height, which is the average
height of the highest 1/3 of the waves. Individual waves may be
more than twice the significant wave height.

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

.SYNOPSIS...An upper level trough north of the area and tropical
moisture combine to produce scattered showers and isolated
thunderstorms in the NW Caribbean. The unsettled weather
conditions will continue into Mon. A tropical wave moving across
the eastern Caribbean will produce some showers over the next
few days, reaching the central Caribbean today and the western
Caribbean Mon. Otherwise, Atlantic high pressure in combination
with low pressure over northern Colombia will support fresh to
strong trades along with moderate to locally rough seas across
much of the central Caribbean through this week. Later, moderate
to locally fresh easterly winds and moderate seas will prevail
across the central and eastern Caribbean through the workweek.

Synopsis for the the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas

.SYNOPSIS...A weak stationary front extends from a 1011 mb low
off NE Florida to near Palm Coast, Florida, with a surface
trough extending southward offshore Florida through the NW
Bahamas. Both features are leading to scattered showers and
isolated thunderstorms N of Cuba and W of 73W, which will
continue through early this week. The low pres will track NE to
E, dragging the front southward across much of Florida. Behind
the low, NE to E winds will increase to fresh to strong N of the
front and seas will build to locally rough, mainly N of 29N and W
of 75W Sun night into early Tue. Elsewhere, high pressure will
remain in control of the general weather pattern providing for a
gentle to moderate anticyclonic wind flow.
