Marine Weather Discussion for the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea,
and Tropical North Atlantic from 07N to 19N between 55W and 64W
and the Southwest North Atlantic including the Bahamas

...GULF OF MEXICO...

High pressure will dominate Gulf weather into early next week. A
low pressure trough extending into the far eastern parts of the
Gulf will move north and east of the area by Friday. Moderate to
fresh return southerly flow to the east of the high pressure
center will impact the western Gulf into the weekend.

...CARIBBEAN SEA AND TROPICAL N ATLANTIC FROM 07N TO 19N BETWEEN
55W AND 64W...

The gradient between high pressure centered north of the area and
lower pressure toward the equator will continue to produce fresh
tradewinds across much of the Caribbean through the weekend, with
strong to even near gale conditions north of Colombia and
Venezuela. Some locally strong winds may pulse in the Gulf of
Honduras during the nights through Sat. A strong tropical wave 
approaching 80W early this morning will move into central America
tonight, accompanied by showers, thunderstorms, and gusty winds.
Another strong tropical wave will approach the Lesser Antilles
Sat and move across the eastern Caribbean Sun.

...SW N ATLANTIC INCLUDING THE BAHAMAS...

Southerly winds ahead of a surface trough along the SE U.S. coast
will be fresh to strong N and E of the Bahamas into early next
week. This trough will bring showers and thunderstorms to nearby
waters. High pressure centered north and east of the area will 
dominate most of the rest of the waters.
