The monsoon trough reaches the coastal plains of Guinea near 11N13W. The ITCZ is along 10N17W 05N27W 05N33W 03N47W. Precipitation: scattered moderate to widely scattered strong is within 180 nm to the north of the ITCZ from 37W eastward. Widely scattered moderate to isolated strong is within 240 nm to the south of the ITCZ from 46W eastward. GULF OF MEXICO... A separate upper level cyclonic circulation center is in the SE corner of the Gulf of Mexico. Broad upper level cyclonic wind flow covers the Gulf of Mexico from the NW corner of the area toward the southeast, with a trough. Precipitation: broken to overcast multilayered clouds, and isolated moderate to locally strong, are from 27N southward from 91W eastward. Broken to overcast multilayered clouds are from 25N northward between 90W and 96W, moving southeastward. The southernmost part of a NW-to-SE oriented inland Mexico surface trough reaches the northern part of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec of southern Mexico. Precipitation: numerous strong is in the waters from 20N southward between 93W and 95W. Moderate E-SE winds, and wave heights that range from 2 feet to 3 feet, are in the south central and in the southeastern Gulf. Gentle to moderate ENE to SE winds, and wave heights that range from 1 foot to 3 feet, are in the northeastern and north central Gulf. Moderate to fresh SE to SSE winds, and wave heights that range from 3 feet to 5 feet, are in the west central and northwestern Gulf. High pressure will dominate the basin through the week, and into the upcoming weekend, producing generally return flow west of 90W through Fri. Moderate winds, within 120 nm of the Yucatan Peninsula, will pulse to fresh each night through Fri. CARIBBEAN SEA... An upper level trough passes through the Atlantic Ocean, from 31N69W, to 27N76W, to the SE Gulf of Mexico upper level cyclonic circulation center. Precipitation: broken to overcast multilayered clouds, and widely scattered moderate to isolated strong, are to the northwest of the line, from 31N61W to Hispaniola near 20N70W, and from 18N northward from Hispaniola westward in the NW corner of the Caribbean Sea. A Caribbean Sea tropical wave is along 78W/79W, from 14N southward, moving westward 15 knots to 20 knots. A Caribbean Sea tropical wave is along 86W/87W, from 13N southward in the SW corner of the Caribbean Sea, moving westward 10 knots. The monsoon trough runs from Colombia near 10N74W to 11N77W, through southern Nicaragua, beyond El Salvador, and into the eastern Pacific Ocean. Precipitation: widely scattered moderate to isolated strong covers the SW corner of the Caribbean Sea from 16N southward from 76W westward. A narrow ridge, from the western Atlantic Ocean to the central Bahamas, is supporting moderate to fresh trade winds in much of the area, except for fresh to strong winds in the south central section, and in the Gulf of Honduras. The wave heights range from 4 feet to 6 feet, except for the range from 7 feet to 8 feet in the south central part of the Caribbean Sea, to the north of Venezuela and Colombia. A weak Atlantic Ocean ridge to the west of 55W will maintain a modest pressure gradient and moderate to fresh trade winds across most of the Caribbean basin throughout the week. Fresh to strong winds are expected across the south central Caribbean Sea, including in the Gulf of Venezuela, mainly at night through Fri night. Fresh winds will pulse each night through the end of the week across the interior Gulf of Honduras. Atlantic Ocean high pressure will strengthen north of the area during the upcoming weekend to produce fresh to strong trades across much of the basin. ATLANTIC OCEAN... An upper level trough passes through 31N69W 27N76W, to the SE Gulf of Mexico upper level cyclonic circulation center. Precipitation: broken to overcast multilayered clouds, and widely scattered moderate to isolated strong, are to the northwest of the line, from 31N61W to Hispaniola near 20N70W, and from 18N northward from Hispaniola westward in the NW corner of the Caribbean Sea. Gentle to moderate southerly winds, and wave heights that range from 4 feet to 7 feet, are from 62W westward from the Bahamas northward. A dissipating stationary front is along 31N48W 26N58W 28N68W. Precipitation: isolated moderate to locally strong is elsewhere from 20N northward between 40W and 70W. Gentle to moderate winds, and northerly swell that is maintaining wave heights that range from 8 feet to 11 feet, are from 27N northward between 47W and 57W. An upper level cyclonic circulation center is near 27N25W. Precipitation: widely scattered moderate to isolated strong is within 275 nm of the upper level cyclonic circulation center in the southeastern semicircle. A surface ridge extends from a 1027 mb high pressure center that is near 35N24W, to 31N35W 26N45W 22N60W, through the Bahamas, to the Straits of Florida. Broad surface anticyclonic wind flow spans the Atlantic Ocean from 15N northward, except in the area of the dissipating stationary front. Moderate to fresh NE trade winds, and wave heights that range from 7 feet to 9 feet, are from 26N southward between NW Africa and 40W. Gentle to moderate with locally fresh NE to ENE trade winds, and wave heights that range from 5 feet to 8 feet, are from 8N northward between 40W and 60W. Atlc Ocean high pressure extends weakly westward into the central Bahamas. A frontal trough along about 25N will meander across the E waters through Thu. High pressure will strengthen across the region over the upcoming weekend to produce fresh S to SW winds to the north of 28N and west of 70W. $$ mt/era
