.SYNOPSIS...Winds will pulse to strong speeds near the northern
coast of Hispaniola each night through Tue night. Otherwise, 
trade winds across the region will gradually diminish through 
early next week as a ridge across the Atlantic weakens with a

Ridging will develop by the middle of the week as the troughing 
dissipates.
