The Tropical Weather Outlook
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
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 - High pressure will build over the eastern Gulf as a low pressure system over Florida moves away from the area. A cold front reaching the Texas coast Fri will move across the northern Gulf through Sat night then lift northward as a warm front Sun ahead of a low pressure system tracking across Texas and Louisiana.
3. Caribbean Sea - A cold front trailing south from a low pressure system over Florida will move E and weaken through Fri. Strong nocturnal flow will develop near the NW coast of Colombia Sat...with minimal gale force winds possible Sun night and Mon night.
3a. Most of the Caribbean remains under the influence of dry and relatively stable west-northwesterly flow aloft. A mid-level low and associated energy remains across the Florida peninsula and Florida Straits this morning supporting a cold front extending across central Cuba and into the NW Caribbean waters from 22N79W to 19N81W to 18N85W. A pre-frontal surface trough is also analyzed from central Cuba near the cold front to offshore of NE Nicaragua near 14N82W. Isolated showers and possible isolated tstms are noted within 180 nm E of the surface trough while isolated showers are possible N of 17N E of 86W in association with the cold front. Moderate to fresh W-NW winds are occurring in wake of the front which are expected to weaken gradually through Thursday as the front progresses eastward as dissipates across the north-central waters Thursday night into Friday. Farther east...a stationary front remains analyzed across the Leeward Islands to the adjacent southern coastal waters of Puerto Rico with isolated showers occurring N of 16N E of 68W. The remainder of the basin is under mostly fair skies and relatively tranquil conditions as the overall trade wind flow is disrupted with the presence of the frontal systems impacting the basin. A more normal trade wind synoptic pattern is expected by Saturday night into Sunday.
