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. Trade winds will continue to increase over much of the central and eastern Caribbean through Wed as a tropical wave presently enters the eastern part of the western Caribbean and Atlantic high pressure building SW toward the E Caribbean in its wake. The wave will move into the NW Caribbean Tue through Wed and stall. The wave will then lift NE as a broad trough approaches the far SE Gulf of Mexico Thu.
2. An Atlantic ocean tropical wave is along 42W/43W from 10N southward...moving westward 15 kt. Convective precipitation... scattered strong in the ITCZ from 4N to 6N between 40W and 44W.
3. A Caribbean Sea tropical wave is along 79W/80W from 18N southward...moving westward 15 kt. No significant deep convective precipitation is apparent.
4.Tropical cyclone formation is not expected in the next 24 to 48 hours.
