How to use this page:
The title of each of the figures below is linked to the page where the information originates.
Since I write and post early in the day and generally do not update the page until the next morning; by clicking on the link, it allows you, the viewer, to get the latest information.
This is not only convenient but allows you to track weather events such as cold fronts and hurricanes from a single web page.
In addition, in the right column is a very useful widget. It is a trip planner...yesteryear's weather at a glance.This widget lets you check historic weather for your trip dates.

The Tropical Weather Outlook
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
1. Fresh to strong trade winds will persist across the central Caribbean through early Wed as high pres remains N of area...then will diminish as the high pres shifts SE and weakens. A tropical wave along 81W will move W and across the W Caribbean through Wed. A second tropical wave along 62W-63W will move through the E Caribbean today...across the central Caribbean tonight and Wed...then across the W Caribbean Wed night through Fri.
2. TS Fred continuing to move farther away from the northwestern Cape Verde Islands. Currently this system does not pose a threat to the Bay Islands and north coast of Honduras.
3. The Saharan Air Layer (SAL) has decreased slightly in area.
