Marine Conditions:

The Caribbean Sea

There is one tropical wave in the Atlantic, and none in the Caribbean.

In addition to the showers and thunderstorms off Panama, another cluster is ongoing off the southern Peninsula of Haiti again this morning. A ship reported strong to near gale force winds in this area of thunderstorm, likely due to strong downdrafts. Elsewhere trade winds are well below average with mostly gentle to moderate breezes and slight to moderate seas noted in all areas. This relatively relaxed period is courtesy of fairly weak high pressure centered north of the area off the northern Bahamas.

For the forecast, Peter will move to 18.8N 55.3W this afternoon, then continue to move to the northeast of the Leeward Islands and reach 19.8N 57.8W Mon morning and 20.8N 60.1W Mon afternoon. Expect large swell off the Leeward Islands into mid week. Peter will continue to move northward and away from the Leewards thereafter through mid week. Peter will displace the weakening Atlantic ridge currently north of the region, allowing trades winds over the south-central Caribbean to diminish over the next several days.

OP Marty	NHC is issuing advisories on newly formed Tropical Depression Seventeen. At 8 a.m. CVT (5 a.m. EDT), the center of the depression was located over the far eastern Atlantic Ocean abut 330 miles (530 km) southwest of the southernmost Cabo Verde Islands. It's moving toward the north-northwest near 14 mph (22 km/h), and this general motion is expected to continue today. A motion toward northwest is forecast to begin by tonight and continue through Tuesday. At 5 a.m. AST, the center of Tropical Storm Peter was located over the Atlantic Ocean about 630 miles (1015 km) east of the northern Leeward Islands. Peter is moving toward the northwest near 15 mph (24 km/h), and this general motion is expected to continue this morning. A turn back toward the west-northwest is forecast to occur by this afternoon, with that motion continuing into Wednesday. On the forecast track, Peter is expected to pass well to the north of the northern Leeward Islands on Monday and Tuesday. At 5 p.m. AST, the center of now Post-Tropical Cyclone Odette was located over the northern Atlantic Ocean about 295 miles (625 km) east-southeast of Nantucket, Massachusetts, and about 385 (745 km) south-southwest of Halifax, Nova Scotia. Odette is moving toward the east-northeast near 18 mph (30 km/h), and this general motion with an increase in forward speed is expected through Sunday. A turn toward the east and east-southeast with a decrease in forward speed is expected on Monday and Tuesday. On the forecast track, the center of Odette will pass well south of Atlantic Canada tonight through Monday. For more information, check the daily Tropical Weather Outlook, click here
