The Tropical Weather Outlook
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
1. Gulf of Mexico - A thermal trough will develop over the Yucatan Peninsula during the late afternoons. A surface high currently over the N central Gulf will shift N of the area today with the pressure gradient tightening across the NE Gulf waters briefly tonight.
2. Caribbean Sea - A tropical low is currently near 17N61W along a tropical wave axis. Tropical cyclone development is possible as the low continues NW across the Leewards today with the strongest winds over the NE quadrant of the low. Fresh trades will develop across the E and central Caribbean tonight and continue through Sat. Strong NE winds expected along the NW coast of Colombia tonight. Tropical cyclone Gaston is expected to pass E of the area...but long period swells resulting in combined seas of 7-9 ft will propagate into the tropical waters N of 18N E of 57W on Fri.
3. ...SPECIAL FEATURES...
3a. Tropical Storm Gaston is centered near 14.9N 38.6W at 24/0900 UTC or about 850 nm west of the Cabo Verde Islands moving west- northwest at 15 kt. Estimated minimum central pressure is 999 mb. Maximum sustained wind speed is 60 kt with gusts to 75 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated strong convection is from 13N-17N between 35W-40W. Clusters of scattered moderate convection are from 15N-20N between 39W-43W.
3b. A tropical wave moving across the Lesser Antilles is analyzed from 21N66W along 18N63W through a 1009 mb low near 17N61W to 12N59W. This system could become a tropical depression during the next day or two as it moves west-northwest 13 to 17 kt. Conditions could become more conducive later this week while the system moves near the southeastern and central Bahamas. Scattered moderate to isolated strong convection is from 15N-18N between 60W-64W. Scattered showers and possible isolated thunderstorms are from 17N-21N between 56W-67W. There is a medium chance of tropical formation in the next 48 hours. Interests from the islands of the northeastern Caribbean Sea to the Bahamas should continue to monitor the progress of this system. Gusty winds, heavy rains, and possible flash floods and mud slides could occur over portions of these areas regardless of tropical cyclone formation.
