The Caribbean Sea

There is a Gale Warning currently in effect near the coast of Colombia.

Overnight scatterometer data depicted fresh to strong trade winds across the basin. The most recent altimeter passes indicated seas running 8 to 11 ft for the eastern two-thirds of the basin. Strong high pressure north of the area will maintain these conditions for at least the next several days. A mid to upper- level low centered near 14N64W is generating cloudiness and some isolated showers over the far SE Caribbean. Ridging and large scale subsidence prevail over the central and western Caribbean.

Strong high pressure ridging north of the area will maintain strong trades across the central Caribbean through the forecast period, pulsing to gale force each night off the coast of Colombia through Tue. A cold front moving E from the United States mainland will weaken the ridge over the western Atlc to allow the fresh to strong trades over the Windward Passage and over in the Gulf of Honduras to subside by tonight. Fresh trades over the tropical Atlantic waters will diminish to mainly moderate speeds Sat.
