The Tropical Weather Outlook
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
1. Gulf of Mexico - A coastal trough will persist over the SW Gulf through the weekend. A cold front will enter the NE Gulf Fri afternoon. The cold front will move S-SE and through the Straits of Florida on Sat night. Strong ridging behind the front will build across the basin and produce fresh to strong winds over E and SE portions of the Gulf from Sat to Tue.
2. Caribbean Sea - Fresh to strong winds across the N-central and NW Caribbean will gradually diminish this morning. A trough extending from near 18N58W SW across the Leewards to near 13N70W will will gradually weaken through today...with an upper trough in this area supporting widespread showers and tstms through the weekend. High pressure building N of the area will support fresh to strong winds once again over the N central and NW Caribbean by Mon.
3.. Tropical cyclone formation is not expected for the next 48 hours.
4. ....Special Features...
4a. A surface trough extends from a 996 mb low pressure center that is near 33N46W, to 27N46W, 21N50W and 18N60. The trough continues into the Caribbean Sea near 16N66W, curving 11N71W at the coast of Venezuela just to the NE of Lake Maracaibo of NW Venezuela. Gale- force winds are present in the Atlantic Ocean, within 180 nm of the low pressure center, for the next few hours or so. Expect sea heights to range from 12 feet to 18 feet.
4b. A deep layer trough passes through 32N56W to 28N52W 23N60W 21N66W, across Puerto Rico, to coastal Venezuela along 66W/67W. Comparatively drier air in subsidence is apparent in water vapor imagery to the north and northwest of the trough, in the Atlantic Ocean, and in the Caribbean Sea across Puerto Rico, Hispaniola, and Cuba. Convective precipitation: in the Atlantic Ocean: isolated moderate to locally strong from 20N northward between 37W and 47W; isolated moderate from 14N to 22N between 53W and 63W. in the Caribbean Sea: numerous strong off the coast of Venezuela within a 30 nm radius of 12N66W.
