SYNOPSIS FOR THE SW N ATLC INCLUDING THE BAHAMAS
.SYNOPSIS...LOW PRES NEAR 28N69W 1005 MB IS NEARLY STATIONARY
WITH WEAKENING COLD FRONT OVER FAR SE PART OF AREA AND TROUGH
FROM LOW TO THE WINDWARD ISLANDS. THE LOW...POSSIBLY A
SUBTROPICAL CYCLONE...WILL BEGIN TO MOVE SLOWLY NW ON TUE
REACHING TO NEAR 28N71W BY EARLY WED WITH TROUGH SW TO EASTERN
