The Tropical Weather Outlook
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
1. Cloudiness and showers over the southwestern Caribbean Sea are associated with a broad low pressure area. This system has become a little less organized since yesterday. However, environmental conditions are expected to be conducive for slow development during the next several days, and a tropical depression could form over the weekend or early next week while the low moves slowly and erratically.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...70 percent
All interests in the Bay Islands and on the North Coast of Honduras should monitor this system closely as it tracks westward toward us. Currently this system does not pose a threat to the Bay Islands and north coast of Honduras. But all interests here should monitor this system as it moves west towards us.2. Gulf of Mexico - High pressure over the SE U.S. will produce E-SE return flow which will dominate the basin through Fri. A strong cold front will move into the far NW Gulf late Fri night and reach from S FL to the SW Gulf by Sun morning. A gale is possible over W portions of the SW Gulf Sat and Sun.
3. Caribbean Sea - A cold front from eastern Cuba to the Gulf of Honduras will stall from near the Windward Passage to the Honduras/Nicaragua border Thu evening. High pressure building in behind the front will support fresh to strong winds NW of the front today through Mon night. Broad low pressure will meander over the SW Caribbean through Mon night.
3a....Caribbean Sea... A remnant cold front extends from the west Atlantic to over Cuba near 21N76W where it has pulled up stationary extending across the Cayman Islands to along the coast of Honduras west of 86W. Scattered showers are possible within 60 nm of the front west of 83W. Southeast of the front is a persistent surface trough that extends from Jamaica near 17N77W through a weak 1008 mb low near 13N80W to Panama near 9N82W. Clusters of scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are within 210 nm east and 180 nm west of the surface trough. This activity is being enhanced by an upper ridge that has persisted over the Caribbean this week. A second surface trough is moving across the east Caribbean extending along 66W from 13N-18N. Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are from 14N-18N between 63W-70W including portions of the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. The front over the northwest Caribbean coupled with upper ridge over the Caribbean is producing a diffluent environment, then adding the moisture associated with the western surface trough are generating scattered and possible isolated thunderstorms north of 17N between 73W-78W including east Cuba and most of Haiti. The cold front is expected to stall from the Windward Passage to the Nicaragua/Honduras border this evening. The low will meander over the southwest Caribbean into the weekend when a tropical depression could from. The second surface trough will continue west through the end of the week.
