Synopsis for Caribbean Sea, and Tropical N Atlantic from 07N to
19N W of 55W
314 PM EDT Fri Apr 19 2024

.SYNOPSIS...Broad high pressure located between Bermuda and the
Bahamas will support fresh to locally strong trade winds in the
lee of Cuba, Windward Passage, and south of the Dominican
Republic at night during the next few days. These winds will
gradually diminish this weekend into early next week as a cold
front moves across the western Atlantic and the pressure
gradient relaxes. A locally tight pressure gradient will support
pulsing fresh to locally strong winds near northern Colombia at
night through the period. A surface trough approaching the 
Windward Islands is accompanied by scattered showers and 
thunderstorms with gusty winds. The trough will move across the 
islands into the southeastern Caribbean tonight through the 
weekend.
