The Caribbean Sea

There is a Gale Warning in the south-central Caribbean. Latest scatterometer data depicts gale-force winds across the south-central Caribbean within 90 nm of the Colombia coast. Fresh to strong trades are noted in the Gulf of Honduras, across the approach to the WindWard Passage, south of Hispaniola, southwest of Puerto Rico and in the central Caribbean. Moderate to fresh trades prevail elsewhere in the basin. Seas are in the 8-9 ft range in the central Caribbean, the highest offshore of northern Colombia, and mainly in the 5-7 ft range elsewhere. Fair weather conditions prevail across the region, with quick-moving showers embedded in the trade wind flow.

High pressure across the Atlantic will continue to support fresh to strong trade winds over south-central Caribbean through the forecast period, with winds pulsing to gale-force near the coast of Colombia at night. Fresh to strong winds will continue in the Gulf of Honduras through early Mon, and in the Windward Passage through Tue night.
