The Caribbean Sea

An upper level trough extends from an upper level cyclonic circulation center that is near SE Cuba and the Windward Passage, toward eastern Honduras and NE Nicaragua. The monsoon trough is along 10N76W in Colombia, through 09N82W, beyond southern Costa Rica and into the eastern Pacific Ocean. Scattered showers are noted along the monsoon trough. The sea heights range from 3 to 5 ft from 70W eastward, from 4 to 6 ft between 70W and 80W, and from 4 to 5 ft from 80W westward. Strong NE winds are within 60 nm of the coast of Colombia between 73W and 75W. Fresh-to-strong NE and E winds are within 300 nm of the coasts of Venezuela and Colombia between 70W and 77W, and in the Gulf of Venezuela; and within 60 nm of the northern coast of Hispaniola between 70W and the northern part of the Windward Passage. Strong easterly winds are within 180 nm to the north of Honduras from 84W westward.

The Atlantic high pressure combined with the Colombian low continues to support fresh to strong trades over the south-central Caribbean mainly at night through Wed. Pulsing fresh to strong E to SE winds are expected in the Gulf of Honduras at night through Wed also. An active tropical wave with axis along 57W is forecast to approach the Lesser Antilles by Thu, and move across those islands on Fri enhancing convection, winds, and seas.

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

A vigorous tropical wave located several hundred miles east of the Lesser Antilles continues to produce disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Environmental conditions are becoming increasingly less favorable for tropical development. As a result, we no longer are anticipating this tropical wave will develop. However, locally heavy rainfall and gusty winds can impact the Lesser Antilles late this week.

One other area of concern will be located near the Azores later this week. An upper-air low pressure is expected to develop near or just north of the Azores at the end of the week. Should this low move far enough south over the weekend, it will encounter some slightly warmer waters, and subtropical development may occur.
