Marine Conditions:

The Caribbean Sea

High pressure prevails N of the area, over the SW N Atlantic waters. The pressure gradient between this area of high pressure and climatological low pressure over Colombia is supporting strong to near gale force winds over the south central Caribbean. Gentle to moderate winds prevail over the western Caribbean. Moderate to fresh winds are noted over the remainder of the Caribbean waters.

Fresh to strong trades over the south- central Caribbean will expand in coverage this weekend as high pressure builds over the western Atlantic. Winds will pulse to near gale force near the coast of Colombia each night through Tue night.
