The Caribbean Sea

There are two tropical waves currently impacting the eastern Caribbean. Relatively dry air covers the central and NW Caribbean. Deep- layered ridging is over Cuba. A 1016 mb surface high is analyzed near 23N83W. Scattered showers and tstorms cover portions of the SW Caribbean and Central America, including the waters near eastern Honduras and northern Nicaragua as well as the waters north of western Colombia and eastern Panama. The latest ASCAT pass from Sunday evening depicts moderate to fresh trades in the south-central Caribbean.

Moderate to fresh trade winds will dominate much of the basin. Long period northerly swell will starting pushing through Atlantic passages by early Tue. A tropical wave entering the central Caribbean will move through the western Caribbean by late Tue, and west of the basin by mid week. Scattered thunderstorms and gusty winds accompany another tropical wave currently impacting the Lesser Antilles. This wave will move through the eastern Caribbean today, across the central Caribbean through mid week, and into the western Caribbean by late week. Looking ahead, low pressure developing east of the area will move toward the Atlantic offshore waters of the Leeward Islands by late Fri, possibly as a tropical cyclone.

OP Marty	Present location of INVEST 97L is about 1400 miles east-southeast of the Lesser Antilles. Movement: slowly west-northwestward to northwestward. Residents in the northern Leeward Islands should continue to monitor the progress of this disturbance as the forecast models are back and forth on its forecast track. Meanwhile, scattered showers and thunderstorms associated with a fast westward-moving tropical wave are presently affecting parts of the Lesser Antilles. Convection has diminished within the past few hours and a lesser impact is anticipated for the islands. We will continue to monitor its progress and update you if conditions become severe. Significant areas of showers and thunderstorms moving through the Lesser Antilles. Heavy convection is presently noted over and or approaching parts of Guadeloupe, Dominica and St Lucia,,,Hewanorra International Airport.

OP Marty	The ESE Caribbean air has quite a few lines of cloud in it, causing isolated rain showers in any part of Belize this morning, more so in the south. Just a trace of high level from the NNW over the south. Looks like today will be mainly sunny, with clouds building and the occasional rain showers in any place. Temperatures in Belmopan : ( Coast usually cooler, hills even cooler ) Last night min. 24°C 74°F Yesterday max. 33°C 92°F Yesterday Rain 0.1 mm (0.0" )
