Minimal gale force winds along the Colombian coast will weaken early this morning...but reach minimal gale force again Sun night. The tail-end of a cold front over eastern Cuba will stall this afternoon and dissipate Sun night. E swell in the southern portion of the tropical N Atlantic will slowly subside through Sun. Long period N swell will begin to affect the northern tropical N Atlantic tonight and Sun reaching S to near 15N. The swell will decay on Mon allowing for seas to subside.
