1. There are no tropical cyclones in the Atlantic at this time. The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1st through November 30th.
2. Gulf of Mexico - Fresh to strong southerly return flow will prevail across most of the basin through Mon. A weak cold front will move across the northern Gulf Mon through Wed.
3. Caribbean Sea - Strong high pressure north of the area shifting eastward into the central Atlantic through Sun will support a small area of nocturnal gales N of Colombia...and a broad area of fresh to strong trades over the central and E Caribbean...tonight through Mon night.
3a. Middle level NE wind flow moves from Hispaniola, toward Central America, from Honduras to Panama. Upper level NW wind flow is moving from Cuba to Hispaniola, and beyond the SE corner of the Caribbean Sea. Comparatively drier air in subsidence is apparent in water vapor imagery across the entire area.
