Synopsis for Caribbean Sea and Tropical N Atlantic from
07N to 19N between 55W and 64W

.SYNOPSIS...The Bermuda High north of the area is supporting
fresh to strong SE winds near the Gulf of Honduras through
tonight and fresh to strong trades off Colombia through Sat
night. These will diminish as the high shifts eastward. A cold
front will move through the Yucatan Channel into the NW
Caribbean late Sat, followed by strengthening N winds and
building seas. The front will extend from E Cuba to the Gulf of
Honduras Sun afternoon, then weaken and dissipate on Mon. The
trades will increase again over the central and W Caribbean Tue
night and Wed as the Bermuda High redevelops north of the area.
Moderate long-period NW swell will reach the tropical N Atlantic
waters beginning on Tue.

Synopsis for the the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas

.SYNOPSIS...The Bermuda High will shift eastward tonight and Sat

Passage on Mon afternoon, and then dissipate over the area on 
Tue. Near gale to gale-force SW winds ahead of the front and W
