The Caribbean Sea
There is a potential for heavy rain now through tonight for the Virgin
Islands and Leeward Islands.
A recent scatterometer pass indicates fresh to strong E winds near
the southern coast of Hispaniola, and off the central coast of
Honduras and the Bay Islands. Moderate to fresh winds are noted
elsewhere. Seas are 2 to 4 ft over the northwest Caribbean, and 4
to 6 ft elsewhere. In addition to the clusters of showers and
thunderstorms over the northeast Caribbean mentioned in the
Special Features section above, scattered showers are evident
over the southwest Caribbean where trade wind flow is converging
into the monsoon trough.
For the forecast, high pressure located north of the Caribbean
Sea will support fresh to strong winds over parts of the east and
central Caribbean during the next several days. Fresh to strong
winds are expected over the south-central Caribbean, near the
coast of Colombia beginning on Mon.
