SYNOPSIS FOR THE SW N ATLC INCLUDING THE BAHAMAS .SYNOPSIS...A cold front just off the northeast Florida coast will shift E and stall from Bermuda to southeast Florida early Fri. Remnants of the front will lift north across the waters north of the Bahamas on Fri and Sat. Another cold front will move off the northeast Florida coast late Mon. Fresh to locally strong trades are expected to continue along the north coast of Hispaniola and the Atlantic approach to the Windward Passage through Fri. A tightening pressure gradient will then support strong trades across all the waters south of 23N by late Sat.
