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

.SYNOPSIS...Weak high pressure across the Atlantic along 25N
between the Bahamas and 60W and will shift NE through tonight.
High pressure across the NE Atlantic will gradually build
westward along 25N and into the Bahamas Fri through the weekend,
which will strengthen the ridge. This pattern will support fresh
to strong trade winds south of 15N through the upcoming weekend,
gradually expanding westward to Nicaragua. Winds will pulse to
fresh to strong across the Gulf of Honduras each evening and
night through Tue night. Moderate trades in the eastern
Caribbean and tropical Atlantic will freshen tonight into the
weekend, with large swell over the Atlantic waters east of the
Windward Islands starting Sat.
