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 ridge along 25N will lift north tonight ahead of a surface
trough moving across Florida into the southeast Gulf before
dissipating over the central Gulf through Sat. This pattern will
maintain gentle to moderate winds and slight seas, except for
locally fresh winds near the coast of the Yucatan peninsula due
to local effects. 

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

High pressure north of the area will maintain pulses of fresh to
strong winds tonight in the Windward Passage, Gulf of Honduras
and off Colombia. These winds will diminish through Thu as the
high shifts farther north.  

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

A pair of troughs northeast of the Bahamas will dissipate
through tonight, as a third trough east of the area will weaken
as it moves into the northern Bahamas by Sat. Meanwhile, a ridge
will build north of the area, supporting moderate to fresh trade
winds south of 22N into Sun.
