The Tropical Weather Outlook
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
1. There are no tropical cyclones in the Atlantic at this time. The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1st through November 30th.
2. Gulf of Mexico - A weak cold front from New Orleans to 27N92W will move E across the NE Gulf through Wed. High pressure building N of the area will push the front into the southern Gulf Thu...where it will stall and dissipate Thu night. A strong cold front racing into the NW Gulf Sat will extend from the Florida Panhandle to the Bay of Campeche, Mexico Sat night. Strong N winds and high seas are likely W of the front.
3. Caribbean Sea - Fresh to strong trades will prevail over the central and eastern Caribbean today...then diminish through Wed. A weak cold front will stall and dissipate near the Yucatan Channel Thu.
3a. A surface ridge extends across the basin anchored over the west Atlantic north of the area. The pressure gradient generated by the interaction of this high and lower pressures prevailing north of South America is supporting fresh to strong easterly winds south of Jamaica between 72W-80W. Fresh trades prevail across the remainder of the basin. Strong subsidence prevails across the basin supporting fair weather.
