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 cold front extending from SW Alabama to 26N90W to 24N94W will
dissipate over the NE Gulf waters just west of the Florida Big
Bend by Fri. Moderate to fresh SSE winds ahead of the front will
diminish tonight as the front gradually weakens. Light to gentle
variable winds will dominate the basin afterwards through Mon.
Otherwise, the next cold front is forecast to move off the coast
of Texas and Alabama by Mon evening with moderate to fresh N
winds behind it.  

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

Large northerly swell across the Caribbean passages associated
with a frontal system over the SW N Atlantic waters will
gradually subside through this evening. Moderate to fresh trade
winds are expected in the central Caribbean through the entire
period, increasing to strong near the coast of Colombia and in
the Gulf of Venezuela some of the nights. Gentle to moderate
winds are expected elsewhere, except in the Gulf of Honduras
where winds will increase to moderate to fresh over the coming
weekend. 

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

Large northerly swell N and NE of the Bahamas associated with a
frontal system over the SW N Atlantic waters will gradually
subside through this evening. Surface high pressure building N
of the area will support gentle to moderate return flow across
the area through Fri evening. The remnants of the front will
move into the E offshores waters N of 22N on Fri night,
tightening the pressure gradient and supporting moderate to
fresh winds over the NE waters through Sat night.
