000 AGXX40 KNHC 020833 MIMATS Marine Weather Discussion NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 433 AM EDT Fri Oct 2 2020 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 stationary front from the southwest Florida to central Yucatan will slowly dissipate today, as low pressure over the northwest Caribbean continues to become better organized. The low pressure is expected to move into the Yucatan peninsula and south central Gulf through Sat, possibly as a tropical depression, supporting strong to near-gale force winds and building seas across the south central Gulf into early next week. Meanwhile farther north, a reinforcing front over the northern Gulf will move across the northeast Gulf today, eventually stalling and dissipating across southern Florida and the southeast Gulf through Sat. ...CARIBBEAN SEA AND TROPICAL N ATLANTIC FROM 07N TO 19N BETWEEN 55W AND 64W... Low pressure over the northwest Caribbean continues to become better organized, and may develop into a tropical depression over the next couple of days as it moves into the Yucatan peninsula and the southern Gulf of Mexico. This will bring strong winds and building seas to the northwest Caribbean near the Yucatan Channel through late Sat. This pattern will also support fresh to strong trades over the eastern and central Caribbean between the low pressure and the Bermuda High over the central Atlantic through Sun night. Winds and seas will subside Mon and Tue across the basin. ...SW N ATLANTIC INCLUDING THE BAHAMAS... A stationary front extending from 31N75W to SE Florida will gradually dissipate through late today. A reinforcing cold front will move into the waters off NE Florida late today, before also stalling from near 31N79W to central Florida by Sat afternoon, and then retreating northward as a warm front on Sun. Meanwhile, the Bermuda High north of our area and lower pressure in NW Caribbean will support moderate to fresh trades south of 22N, occasionally pulsing to strong north of Hispaniola during the overnight hours through Sun night. Looking ahead, a third weak front will move over the Atlantic waters east of NE Florida late Sun and dissipate by early Tue. $$ .WARNINGS...Any changes impacting coastal NWS offices will be coordinated through AWIPS II Collaboration Chat, or by telephone: .GULF OF MEXICO...
