Synopsis for Caribbean Sea and Tropical N Atlantic from 07N to 19N between 55W and 64W .SYNOPSIS...Weak low pressure has formed just south of Grand Cayman associated with a broader low pressure trough over the northwest Caribbean. This features is producing disorganized thunderstorms over much of the west and northwest Caribbean. This low may strengthen through Sat when it should reach northward into central or western Cuba, and there is a low chance of tropical formation during this time. Regardless of development, heavy rain and gusty winds could impact the Cayman Islands, Cuba, and adjacent waters through the weekend. Winds and seas will increase east of the Windward Islands and in the E Caribbean on Sat through Tue, ahead of a tropical wave near 46W that will approach the Lesser Antilles by the start of next week.

Synopsis for the the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas .SYNOPSIS...Hurricane Epsilon has moved northward away from the area overnight and is now northeast of Bermuda early this morning. Epsilon is expected to to accelerate northeastward through Sat, then become extratropical east of Newfoundland Sun. The gradient between high pressure over the western Atlantic and Hurricane Epsilon will maintain strong winds and large seas over the western waters through tonight. Long-period northeast swell will continue to impact the waters north and northeast of the Bahamas through Sat. Low pressure moving northeast from Central Cuba has a medium chance of tropical formation early next week over waters near South Florida and the northern and central Bahamas. Regardless of development, heavy rain and gusty winds are possible across South Florida and the Bahamas this weekend through early next week.
