How to use this page:
The title of each of the figures below is linked to the page where the information originates.
Since I write and post early in the day and generally do not update the page until the next morning; by clicking on the link, it allows you, the viewer, to get the latest information.
This is not only convenient but allows you to track weather events such as cold fronts and hurricanes from a single web page.
In addition, in the right column is a very useful widget. It is a trip planner...yesteryear's weather at a glance.This widget lets you check historic weather for your trip dates.

The Tropical Weather Outlook
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
1.SYNOPSIS...High pressure N of the area along with several passing tropical waves will maintain fresh to strong trades over mainly the central and NW Caribbean through early next week. A tropical wave over the S central Caribbean will move W through the SW Caribbean through late Sun and into Central America Mon. A second tropical wave will move across the Windward Islands late today...across the E Caribbean through Sat night...across the central Caribbean through Mon and into the SW Caribbean Tue. A third tropical wave will pass 55W Sat night...into the E Caribbean late Sun...and across the central Caribbean through Tue.
2. 1. Disorganized showers and thunderstorms extending from the northwestern Caribbean Sea to Belize and the Yucatan peninsula of Mexico are primarily associated with an upper-level trough. This activity is expected to move northwestward into the southwestern Gulf of Mexico by late Sunday where development, if any, is unlikely due to strong upper-level winds.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...10 percent
3.Tropical cyclone formation is not expected in the next 24 to 48 hours.
4. The Saharan Air Layer (SAL) has decreased slightly in area and density.
