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 in the NW Gulf will slowly shift eastward through 
Mon. Southerly winds will increase early next week. Smoke from 
agricultural fires in southern Mexico may cause haze and reduced 
visibilities in the southern Gulf during the next several days. 

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

A ridge over the western Atlantic will maintain fresh trade
winds in the central Caribbean through Sun. Gentle to moderate 
winds are expected elsewhere. Smoke from agricultural fires in 
Central America may cause haze and reduced visibilities in the 
Gulf of Honduras and east of the Yucatan peninsula. 

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

A cold front from 31N76W to the Straits of Florida will move 
eastward and reach from Bermuda to the southern Bahamas Sat, then
stall and weaken from 27N65W to eastern Cuba Sun. High pressure 
will prevail across the northern waters through early next week.
