The Caribbean Sea

Aside from convection associated with the tropical waves in the Caribbean, no significant showers and thunderstorms are occurring. Winds are mainly gentle to to moderate in the NW Caribbean, moderate to fresh in the eastern Caribbean, and fresh in the central Caribbean. Locally strong winds are occurring just off the coasts of Colombia and Venezuela. Seas average 2 to 4 ft in the western Caribbean, 4 to 6 ft in the eastern Caribbean, and 5 to 7 ft in the central Caribbean.

The monsoon trough is along 09N/10N between 75W in Colombia, beyond Costa Rica, into the eastern Pacific Ocean. Convection associated with this tough has diminished overnight.

The tropical wave currently approaching Jamaica will move west across the basin into tonight. Winds and seas will increase as high pressure builds over the basin following the tropical wave. Another robust tropical wave will approach the Lesser Antilles Wed or Thu, bringing gusty winds and showers and thunderstorms to portions of the eastern Caribbean late in the week.

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

The Atlantic basin remains free of organized tropical systems, though there are a few features that bear watching into the coming week.

One concern is an area of low pressure that is tracking to the west across the southwestern Atlantic. This feature can potentially form into a tropical depression before moving into Georgia and South Carolina late Monday. This will bring an enhancement of showers and thunderstorms to Georgia and South Carolina through Tuesday.

There is also a robust tropical wave in the eastern Atlantic that is producing areas of rain and thunderstorms. This wave is moving westward rather quickly, at about 20 mph. At this pace, it can reach the Lesser Antilles around midweek. There can be some gradual development with this as it tracks across the Atlantic and it is possible that this can gain enough organization to become a tropical depression during the first half of the week, though there is not much support for significant strengthening. This can at least bring gusty showers and thunderstorms across the western Caribbean around the middle of the week.
