The Tropical Weather Outlook
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
1. Tropical cyclone formation is not expected for the next 48 hours.
2. Gulf of Mexico - A weak cold front from northern Florida to southern Texas will reach from central Florida to extreme S Texas tonight then weaken across the SE Gulf and Straits of Florida Sun. Strong southerly flow and high seas will develop across much of the western Gulf Sun night...and spread eastward to the central Gulf through Tue as a cold front approaches the Texas coast. The front will stall tue night...with southerly flow subsiding through Wed. Reinforcing cold air will push the front into the NW and central Gulf Wed and Wed night.
3. Caribbean Sea - Trade winds will diminish across the region through tonight as high pressure centerd near Bermuda shifts NE. A cold front will sweep across the SW N Atlantic tonight through Tue... reaching from 23N65W to SE Bahamas by Tue morning. Strong high pressure building behind the front will produce fresh to strong NE winds S of Cuba and Windward Passage Mon through Tue...spreading into SE waters Wed as the high shifts eastward.
3a. Subtle upper level troughing is noted on water vapor imagery over eastern Cuba and portions of the north-central Caribbean as upper level ridging persists over the NW Caribbean...Central America... along with much of the eastern Caribbean E of 72W. At the surface...fresh to occasional strong E-NE winds prevail between lower pressure across northern South America and a 1023 mb high centered across the SW North Atlc region near 31N65W. Most intense convection is occurring across the western Caribbean and portions of Central America with scattered showers and strong tstms generally S of 17N E of 70W to Central America across Nicaragua and Honduras. The pressure gradient is forecast to relax with the resulting trades expected to decrease late Saturday as the ridge to the north moves E-NE.
