Synopsis for the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas
1115 AM EDT Sun Aug 9 2026
.SYNOPSIS...A weak trough along the U.S. southeastern coast in
combination with ample deep moisture in place will help maintain
scattered showers and thunderstorms offshore northern Florida east
to near 74W. Otherwise, the ridge associated to high pressure
of 1023 mb will shift southward to along 28N through Tue. Fresh
trades will prevail N of Hispaniola and in the approach to the
Windward Passage through the period, pulsing to strong speeds each
evening and night. The Atlantic ridge will drop a bit farther
southward later next week, which may result in stronger easterly
winds. Of note, a tropical wave is expected to move off the west
coast of Africa early in the week. Environmental conditions are
forecast to be conducive for gradual development thereafter and a
tropical depression could form during the latter half of this
week while the system moves generally westward across the eastern
and central tropical Atlantic.
