Marine Conditions:
The Caribbean Sea
There are two tropical waves in the Atlantic, and one in the Caribbean.
A broad upper trough extends from Hispaniola northward across the
Atlantic, while an sharp and narrow upper trough is along 60W to
the N of 10N. A broad area of low to middle level moisture has
converged to the N and E of the tropical wave along 86W, yielding
active convection. Scattered moderate isolated strong convection
is across the SW Caribbean S of 12.5N between coastal Colombia and
coastal Nicaragua. Small widely scattered clusters of moderate
convection are seen elsewhere inside the Caribbean. Fresh to
strong trade wind prevail across most of central portions of the
basin between 68W and 80W, where seas are 7 to 10 ft. Fresh
trades and seas 5 to 6 ft prevail to the E.
Fresh to locally strong trade winds across the majority of
central Caribbean today will reduce coverage to across the south
central Caribbean tonight behind the tropical wave exiting the
western Caribbean. A tropical wave will move across the tropical
Atlantic waters today through early Fri and weaken as it enters
the E Caribbean Fri. A low level disturbance accompanied by strong
winds, seas 8 to 10 ft, and very active weather will enter the
tropical Atlantic waters early Fri and reach the central Lesser
Antilles Fri morning. Strong upper level wind shear across the E
and NE Caribbean during this time is expected to weakening this
system as it moves westward across the E Caribbean Fri through
Sat.
