Synopsis for the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas
933 AM EDT Sun Aug 23 2026
.SYNOPSIS...Low pressure of 1018 mb centered near 29N59W is
causing scattered thunderstorms along with fresh winds. This low
is forecast to drift northwest today, then accelerate northward
and out of the basin Mon. There is a low chance of tropical
development of this low over the next 48 hours. Otherwise, high
pressure will maintain light to gentle winds N of 23N through the
period. To the south, moderate to fresh trades will prevail, with
locally strong winds pulsing at times offshore Hispaniola and into
the Windward Passage. The northern portion of a tropical wave
will move across the waters S of about 23N and E of the Bahamas
early next week freshening the trades. By Wed, the northern
portion of another tropical wave may move across the SE portion of
the area, increasing the trades over those waters.
