The Tropical Weather Outlook
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:1. Gulf of Mexico - A surface trough reaching from the NE Gulf to the central Gulf will dissipate today allowing a ridge to build over the eastern Gulf. The ridge will persist through early next week maintaining generally gentle to moderate breezes and 2 to 4 ft seas through the period.
2. Caribbean Sea - A tropical wave between Colombia and Jamaica will move W across the SW Caribbean through Sun. A stronger tropical wave around 50W will enter the eastern Caribbean late Sun...move across the central Caribbean through late Tue...and exit the SW Caribbean through mid week. Strong winds and seas to 10 ft will accompany this tropical wave over the NE and N central Caribbean through Tue. A third tropical wave will approach the Windward and Leeward islands by mid week. Meanwhile fresh to strong easterly winds will pulse over the Gulf of Honduras this morning and again to lesser extent tonight.
3. ...Special Features...
3a. Tropical Storm Hermine is centered near 35.4N 76.5W at 03/0900 UTC or about 48 nm north of Cape Lookout, North Carolina and about 52 nm west-northwest of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina moving northeast at 18 kt. Estimated minimum central pressure is 997 mb. Maximum sustained wind speed is 50 kt with gusts to 60 kt. Scattered moderate convection is from 32N-40W between 70W-75W.
3b. Gaston has become a post-tropical system centered near 40.5N 26.9W at 03/0900 UTC or about 139 nm northeast of Faial Island in the central Azores and about 104 nm north of Lajes Air Base in the Azores moving east-northeast at 15 kt. Estimated minimum central pressure is 1006 mb. Maximum sustained wind speed is 30 kt with gusts to 40 kt. No deep convection is noted with this system.
4...Tropical Waves...
4a. A tropical wave is over the eastern Atlantic with an axis extending from 22N28W to a 1010 mb low near 18N28W to 10N28W, moving west at 10-15 kt. The northeast portion of this wave is interacting with African dust which is inhibiting convection. Isolated moderate convection prevails east of the wave axis between 21W-27W while scattered moderate convection is where the wave interacts with the Monsoon Trough mainly south of 12N between 24W-32W.
4b. A tropical wave is moving across the central Atlantic with axis extending from 20N48W to a 1009 mb low near 14N47W to 07N49W, moving west at 15-20 kt. This wave is embedded in a moderately moist environment with upper-level diffluence supporting scattered moderate convection from 13N-18N between 45W-56W. This wave is also generating a broad area of fresh to strong easterly winds across the northern portion of it.
4c. A tropical wave is moving across the south-central Caribbean with axis extending from 16N76W into northern Colombia near 07N76W. This feature is well depicted in model guidance and it is embedded in an area of abundant moisture, as noted in TPW imagery. Isolated moderate convection is observed along the southern portion of the wave mainly south of 12N between 75W-79W.
