Synopsis for the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas
424 AM EDT Tue Oct 27 2026
.SYNOPSIS...A tight pressure gradient between a strong ridge over
the eastern United States and a stationary front extending from
31N62W to a 1009 mb low pres system over the NW Bahamas is
supporting a large area of strong to gale-force NE winds and rough
to very rough seas across the waters north of the front and west of
the low. Scattered moderate to isolated strong convection is noted
north of the frontal boundary and also east of 67W south of the
front. The portion of the front east of 62W is expected to move
southeastward as a cold front through Thu while a stationary front
will persist over the waters N of 27N and W of 62W. A high pressure
center will remain over the SE of the United States during this
time. Gale-force winds will diminish by tonight; however, fresh to
strong winds and rough to very rough seas in NE swell will persist
to the north of the front through the forecast period, gradually
diminishing.
