The sea heights range from 2 feet to 4 feet elsewhere. Mostly fresh to some strong winds are from 12N to 19N between Jamaica and Nicaragua. Moderate winds are elsewhere from 11N to 20N from Jamaica westward. Gentle winds are in the remainder of the area that is from Jamaica westward. Moderate to fresh easterly winds are from Jamaica eastward. One upper level trough is in the western parts of the Caribbean Sea, from the 80W/81W tropical wave northward.
