The Caribbean Sea

A stationary front extends from over northern Haiti to south of the Windward Passage to across Jamaica to near the Honduras- Nicaragua border. Isolated to scattered showers are possible near and west of the front. Fresh to strong NE winds are west of the front as well as across the approach to the Windward Passage. Seas are in the 5-8 ft range west of the front.

A surface trough extends from northern Colombia to the Colombia-Panama border beyond into the eastern Pacific Ocean. Scattered showers and thunderstorms persist across portions of central and northern Colombia. Please refer to the forecasts and the weather bulletins from your local meteorological offices for more details.

Fresh to strong winds are noted just offshore of northern Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela. Moderate to fresh trades prevail elsewhere east of the stationary front. Seas are mainly in the 4-6 ft range east of the stationary front, locally to 7 ft northwest of the coast of Colombia. Isolated to scattered showers are possible in the trade wind flow.

The stationary front is expected to gradually dissipate through tonight. Fresh to strong winds and moderate seas west of the front will persist in the Lee of Cuba and across the approach to the Windward Passage through the early part of the week. High pressure in the Atlantic will support fresh to strong trade winds in the south-central Caribbean through Tue night, with the highest winds near the Colombia coast.

OP Marty	A complex mixture of clouds. The cool air from the north over north west Belize, the Caribbean NW winds, over north east Belize, causing clouds to build and possible rain. Both and high level from the SW over south Belize. Present Condition: Mostly cloudy, including in San Pedro. A relatively moist northeasterly airflow dominates our weather. 24hr Forecast: Skies will be cloudy at times. A few showers or periods of rain will occur mostly over central and southern areas this afternoon and then mostly over the south tonight and tomorrow morning. Otherwise, showers will be isolated. Outlook: For Monday afternoon through to midday on Tuesday is for a few cloudy spells along with isolated showers.
