The Tropical Weather Outlook
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:1. A stationary front extends from near Tampa west- southwestward to the central Gulf of Mexico...where the boundary becomes a dissipating stationary front southward to the Bay of Campeche, Mexico. A cold front should reach the NW Gulf of Mexico early on Saturday.
2. The pressure gradient between a 1025 MB Bermuda high and a 1006 MB Colombia low are producing generally moderate to fresh breeze conditions across the Caribbean with locally enhanced winds in the Gulf of Honduras. The Gulf of Honduras winds will on the other hand gradually increase to strong breeze conditions as high pressure builds over the SE United States.
