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 - High pressure will prevail over the northern forecast waters through Fri. Strengthening pres gradient across the Bahamas and adjacent regional Atlantic waters will produce strong NE to E winds through Straits of Florida this evening through early Wed and enhance winds off the NW coast of Cuba each night. A surface trough will develop over the Yucatan each evening...then shift into the SW Gulf overnight where it will dissipate each morning.
3. Caribbean Sea - Increasing pres gradient NW of a stalled front from E Cuba into central Atlantic will allow for fresh NE winds to pulse to strong in the lee of of Cuba each night through Tue as well as through the Windward Passage. Fresh winds off the coast of Colombia will pulse to strong each night through Fri. Gentle to moderate trade winds will prevail elsewhere through Fri.
3a. A middle level to upper level trough passes through 32N68W in the Atlantic Ocean, to 26N71W, across SE Cuba, to NE Nicaragua, and to NW Costa Rica. Middle level-to-upper level NW wind flow is to the west of the trough. Upper level SW wind flow is to the east of the trough. Comparatively drier air in subsidence is apparent in water vapor imagery, to the west of the line that passes through 32N62W to SE Cuba, and in much of the Caribbean Sea. High level clouds are moving NE, across the open waters of the Caribbean Sea, from Nicaragua eastward. A stationary front passes through 32N58W to 27N64W, to 24N68W in the Atlantic Ocean, skirting the SE Bahamas, and to SE Cuba. Convective precipitation: rain showers are possible within 240 nm on either side of the line that runs from 20N69W to 26N63W, beyond 32N55W. Rain showers are possible, elsewhere, in the Caribbean Sea, in scattered to broken low level clouds, to the east of the middle level-to-upper level trough. A surface trough is along 21N64W 18N64W 15N63W, from the Atlantic Ocean into the Caribbean Sea. Convective precipitation: rain showers are possible from 14N to 22N between 62W and 66W. A surface ridge extends from southern Nicaragua, across central Cuba and the NW half of the Bahamas, to a 1027 mb high pressure center that is near 34N72W. 24-hour rainfall totals that are listed for the period that ended at 10/0000 UTC...according to the PAN AMERICAN TEMPERATURE AND PRECIPITATION TABLES...MIATPTPAN/SXCA01 KNHC...0.03 in Guadeloupe.
