A thermal trough will develop over the Yucatan Peninsula each afternoon and weaken as it moves W-NW over water each night...supporting fresh to strong NE winds.
2. Moderate to fresh trade winds to persist across the Caribbean through Thu night as low pressure prevails over the central Atlantic and high pressure remains centered over the SE United States and W Atlantic. NE winds are expected to pulse to fresh to strong each night through Thu night S of Hispaniola and in the Windward Passage and approaches. High pressure will shift E through Bermuda Fri and become centered NE of the area Sat and Sun...diminishing trade winds across much of the Caribbean.
