Marine Conditions:

The Caribbean Sea

Fresh to strong N winds are over the NW Caribbean behind a cold front that extends from eastern Cuba SW to the eastern Gulf of Honduras. These winds will shift to the far SW Caribbean this evening, reaching near gale force speeds along Nicaragua offshore waters. Winds will start to diminish in the SW basin Wed morning as the front stalls from Hispaniola to Costa Rica before dissipating Wed night. Mainly fair weather is across the basin being supported by deep layer dry air. Shallow moisture associated with the front and middle level diffluence support scattered showers and tstms in portions of Haiti and the Windward Passage.

Fresh to locally strong trade winds in the southern Caribbean will expand to the north-central basin and the Windward Passage Thu and prevail through Sat night. Otherwise, long-period N swell over the NE Caribbean passages and the Tropical N Atlantic will start to subside today.

The cold air from the NNW has completely pushed the Caribbean air away, but it is bringing some clouds with it. So parts of Belize are under significant cloud.

Looks as if it will be sunny in parts and cloud in central and other parts, probably no rain though.

Notice the chunk of white clouds coming down.

Which are different to the other air mass around it and making a very sharp edge differences in the clouds not over Belize. It looks as if the west cold air is pushing under the central cloudy cold air and pushing it against the Caribbean air.

===============
Looks like two different cold bubbles coming down from the north, causing two different types of clouds. Some stationary cloud over Honduras, and strange cloud building just off PG, also an odd high level coming down from the NW, towards they Yucatan, just before sunset.
