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...

A tropical wave with axis near Veracruz adjacent waters will
move W of the Gulf today. Fresh to strong SE winds are expected
over the SW and central basin today following the wave passage.
Surface high pressure will persist elsewhere, maintaining gentle
to moderate winds across the region.  

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

Fresh to strong winds will affect the Gulf of Honduras Thu night
and will persist over the south-central Caribbean through Mon
night. Strong winds in the central Caribbean will extend to
Hispaniola adjacent waters Sat night through Mon due to the
passage of a tropical wave across the region. A tropical wave
will move across Puerto Rico today, Hispaniola by tonight, and
the western Caribbean Fri and Sat. 

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

Upper-level divergence and a middle level trough S of 28N will
continue to support scattered showers and thunderstorms   over
the waters W of 70W at least through Sat. A surface trough
associated with these features aloft, will move across the
northern and central Bahamas today and across Florida on Fri.
The pressure gradient between the surface trough and high
pressure across the remainder forecast waters will lead to the
continuation of moderate to locally fresh winds across the
region the entire period.
