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...

High pressure centered over the NE Gulf will result in gentle to
moderate winds with slight seas across much of the area this
week. Fresh to locally strong winds are expected each evening
for the next several nights in the eastern Bay of Campeche near
the Yucatan peninsula due to local effects.  

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

Strong to near gale-force winds over the south-central Caribbean
this morning will result in large NE swell across the waters S
of 18N and W of 72W through tonight. Fresh to strong trade winds
will prevail across the south-central Caribbean waters this
week, with near gale-force winds expected to pulse near the
coast of Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela. Fresh to strong
winds will pulse for the next couple nights through the Windward
Passage. Winds and seas may increase over the Tropical N
Atlantic waters during the middle and latter parts of this week
as a couple of tropical waves cross the region. It is possible
that the second wave may form a tropical cyclone.

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

Weak low pressure centered near 29N73W will remain  nearly
stationary well offshore of the NW Bahamas today, then 
dissipate by tonight. Fresh to locally strong winds will pulse 
each night near the coast of Hispaniola and the approach to the 
Windward Passage. Winds and seas may increase E of 65W during
the middle and latter parts of this week as a couple of tropical
waves cross the region. It is possible that the second may 
form a tropical cyclone.
