from 07N to 22N between 55W and 64W, the SW N Atlantic S of
31N W of 65W including Bahamas, and the Caribbean Sea.

Seas given as significant wave height, which is the average

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

.SYNOPSIS...A high pressure ridge between the Bahamas and
Bermuda will help maintain fresh to strong trades across the
central Caribbean for the next several days. Winds will pulse to
gale- force off the coast of Colombia each evening/early morning
through Sat night. The coverage area of the fresh to strong
trades is expected to diminish beginning Sat night, as the high
pressure weakens. Fresh to strong NE to E winds will also occur
in the Windward Passage and lee of Cuba through Sun night.
Strong to near gale E to SE winds in the Gulf of Honduras will
continue the next few days before diminishing Sat.

Synopsis for the the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas

.SYNOPSIS...A high pressure ridge between the Bahamas and
Bermuda
will help maintain fresh to strong trades north of Hispaniola
and
the approach to the Windward Passage for the next several days.
The W end of a weak cold front will move southeastward across
the
NE forecast waters tonight, and reach from 26N55W to 25N65W Thu 
morning, and then dissipate by Fri morning. A stronger cold
front
 will cross our northern border Fri night, extend from 29N55W to
27N65W to 31N78W Sat morning, and reach from 23N55W to 23N65W
Sun
 morning. Strong to near-gale NW winds and large NW to N swell
are likely on Sat across the NE waters behind the front. Looking
ahead, another cold front may arrive over the NE waters on Sun.
