The Caribbean Sea

A Gale Warning remains in effect near the coast of Colombia.

Fresh to strong NE winds persist in the Windward passage and in the lee of eastern Cuba. Similar wind speeds are over the remainder of the central Caribbean and in the Gulf of Venezuela. Moderate to fresh trades are elsewhere. Sea heights are 8 to 12 ft near the coast of Colombia, 6 to 8 ft in the Windward passage, and 3 to 6 ft elsewhere across the basin.

Shallow moisture, embedded in the trade wind flow, is noted across the area producing isolated to scattered passing showers. These patches of low level moisture, are more concentrated in the lee of east-central Cuba, and over Hispaniola and regional waters. Similar cloudiness is observed over parts of Central America.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between high pressure N of the Caribbean Sea and the Colombian low will continue to support fresh to strong trades over the south-central Caribbean near the coast of Colombia through Fri night. Minimal gale force winds will pulse just offshore Colombia at night through tonight. Fresh to locally strong east to southeast winds will pulse in the Gulf of Honduras at night through Thu night.
