The Caribbean Sea

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

An upper trough north of Puerto Rico is supporting scattered showers and a few thunderstorms from the northern Leeward Island to the Virgin Islands. Please read the Special Features section above for details on Tropical Storm Peter which is forecast to track well north of these locations.

Elsewhere, divergent flow aloft is supporting a few showers and thunderstorms from Jamaica, to Grand Cayman, to off the Isle of Pines. No other significant shower or thunderstorm activity is noted at this time. Winds are abnormally light across the Caribbean, with only gentle to moderate winds observed with 2 to 4 ft seas, except for light breezes and 1 to 3 ft seas over the northwest Caribbean.

For the forecast, Tropical Storm Peter will move to 19.7N 61.4W this afternoon, 20.4N 63.6W Tue morning, and to 21.4N 65.5W Tue afternoon. Peter will weaken to a tropical depression as it continues to move northward toward Bermuda through the rest of the week. As this occurs, trade winds over the south- central Caribbean will diminish through Thu night. Look for associated squalls and thunderstorms to affect the Leeward Islands and adjacent waters through tonight.

OP Marty	At 5 a.m. AST, the center of Tropical Storm Rose was located over the far eastern Atlantic Ocean abut 550 miles (885 km) west of the southernmost Cabo Verde Islands. Rose is moving toward the northwest near 15 mph (24 km/h), and this motion at a slightly slower forward speed is forecast during the next few days. At 5 a.m. AST, the center of Tropical Storm Peter was located over the Atlantic Ocean about 245 miles (390 km) east-northeast of the northern Leeward Islands. Peter is moving toward the west-northwest near 14 mph (22 km/h). This general motion is expected to continue during the next couple of days, followed by a turn to the northwest with a decrease in forward speed on Wednesday.

OP Marty	Present Condition: Mostly clear skies, a few clouds in the south and northwest. Party cloudy in San Pedro. Generally fair weather prevails. 24hr Forecast: Sunny with cloudy spells this afternoon and tomorrow morning and partly cloudy skies tonight. Showers or thunderstorms will be isolated, except for slightly more over the southern districts and coastal areas tonight and tomorrow morning. Outlook: Between Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday midday is for a similar trend to occur. An anticyclonic circulation will favor a muggy environment in the Yucatan Peninsula, although some isolated rains are not ruled out. Today's view from Central Park.
