The eastern portion of the front will drift SE and gradually dissipate through tonight while the W portion of the front lifts N as a warm front this afternoon through Mon ahead of the next cold front expected to slowly approach the NW and N Gulf coasts late Wed and move into the N coastal waters Wed night.
3. Caribbean Sea - Strong to near gale force trades winds will continue over the S central Caribbean through Tue night...increasing to minimal gale force late at night tonight through Mon along the NW coast of Colombia. NE to E swell will maintain high seas across the tropical waters E of the Lesser Antilles through Wed night.
3a. Aside from the near gale to gale force winds expected across a portion of the SW Caribbean Saturday night into Sunday morning...the remainder of the basin is expected to remain relatively tranquil as mostly dry air and subsidence prevail as noted on water vapor imagery. Only a few isolated showers are possible across the Lesser Antilles and eastern waters this morning and across the western Caribbean from 15N-18N between 75W-84W in an area of maximum low-level moisture convergence.
