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 - Scattered showers and tstms over NE Florida will shift E ahead of a weak cold front currently reaching from Vermilion Bay, Louisiana to 25N95W. The front shift east today then stall from Ft Myers, Florida to Galveston Bay, Texas Sat and dissipate Sun. Fresh to strong return flow will then dominate across the western Gulf through Sun night and over the eastern basin through Monday night. A second cold front will move off the Texas Coast Sun night reaching from near W central Florida to N of the Yucatan Peninsula Mon night.
3. Caribbean Sea - Building high pres N of the area will support moderate to fresh winds across most of the Caribbean waters...except for strong winds developing at night along the coast of Colombia and across the Gulf of Honduras. Northerly swell moving through the tropical N Atlc will fade Fri with another larger northerly swell invading Sat through Mon.
3a. Conditions remain relatively tranquil across the basin this evening as an middle to upper level ridge prevails over the western Caribbean and mostly dry northwesterly flow aloft over the eastern Caribbean. Within the NW flow...a shear line extends from Guadeloupe to 15N68W. Low-level moisture convergence is maximized across the eastern Caribbean in the vicinity of the shear line generating isolated showers generally from 14N-17N between 62W- 72W. Otherwise...moderate to fresh trades continue and are expected to persist through the weekend into early next week.

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 - Weak high pressure extending the from western Atlantic westward to the eastern Gulf will maintain E to SE return flow over those waters through this morning as a cold front moves off the Texas coast. The front will then move across the northern Gulf through Fri night preceded by scattered showers and thunderstorms. SE fresh to strong return flow will then dominate across the western Gulf through Sun...then diminish Sun night as another cold front moves off the Texas coast. This front will reach from near W central Florida to the NE Yucatan Peninsula by late Mon. Strong southerly winds with a chance for winds reaching to near gale are expected ahead of this next front along...and along with another round of scattered showers and thunderstorms.
3. Caribbean Sea - A weakening cold front extends from 22N55W SW to the Leeward Islands. This front will continue to moving slowly to the SE while gradually dissipating through Fri. Weak high pressure building N of the central Caribbean behind front will support mainly moderate to fresh winds across most of the Caribbean waters...except for strong winds developing at night along the coast of Colombia and in the Gulf of Honduras. Northerly swell subsiding in the northern tropical N Atlantic will be replaced by a larger batch of long period northerly swell beginning on Sat. This northerly swell will propagate through all of the tropical N Atlantic zones into Mon.
3a. Caribbean Sea... Conditions remain relatively tranquil across the basin this morning as mostly dry west-southwesterly flow aloft prevails. One exception is a dissipating stationary front extending from near Barbuda to 15N68W. Low-level moisture convergence is maximized across the eastern Caribbean in the vicinity of the front generating isolated showers generally S of 16N between 63W-77W. Otherwise...moderate to fresh trades continue and are expected to persist through the upcoming weekend into Monday.

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 over the western Atlantic will maintain E to SE return flow over the Gulf through Wed. A weak cold front will move off the Texas coast tonight and across the northern Gulf through Fri preceded by scattered showers and thunderstorms. High pressure will building in behind the front over the area through Fri night...then move eastward Sat through Sun night. SE return flow will increase over some portions of the western Gulf on Sun.
3. Caribbean Sea - High pressure building N of the central Caribbean will bring an increase in winds across most of the Caribbean waters. N swell will propagate into the tropical N Atlantic zones Thu night into Fri.
3a. West-southwesterly flow aloft prevails over the Caribbean basin this evening with mostly dry and stable conditions noted on water vapor imagery. This stability filters to the surface with most of the basin under relatively clear skies and fair conditions. One exception is an area of enhanced cloudiness and possible isolated showers occurring across the south-central waters from 12N-16N between 67W-72W. With the Special Features low pressure area located N-NE of Puerto Rico...the pressure gradient remains fairly weak and results in mostly gentle to moderate trades. This overall wind pattern is expected to persist through Thursday with the exception of occasional fresh E-SE winds across the Gulf of Honduras. Otherwise...little change is expected through the remainder of the week.

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 - Strong high pres NE of region will support strong E to SE winds across most of the Gulf through Sat morning. The high will gradually weaken and shift eastward through early next week. A weak cold front will approach the Texas coast today and stall. A thermal trough will move W across the Bay of Campeche, Mexico each night and dissipate by late morning.
3. Caribbean Sea - Large N swell will propagate through tropical N Atlantic waters and NE Caribbean passages through Sun afternoon. A trough from the eastern tip of the Dominican Republic to 12N70W will slowly dissipate S of 18N through early Sun. Scattered showers and isolated tstms over much of the eastern Caribbean are expected to continue through Mon. Low pres developing N of the Caribbean will help weaken the gradient further across the area maintaining generally gentle to moderate trades and low seas through early next week.
3a. A surface trough is along 30N46W, to an Atlantic Ocean 1014 mb low pressure center that is near 21N63W. The surface trough continues from 21N63W, through the Mona Passage, into the Caribbean Sea near 13N70W. Convective precipitation: broken to overcast multilayered clouds and possible rain showers are within 240 nm to 360 nm on either side of 32N41W, 25N50W, 25N65W, and 11N69W at the coast of Venezuela. Upper level SW wind flow is moving on top of the area of clouds and possible precipitation in the Caribbean Sea. Upper level anticyclonic wind flow is moving on top of the area of clouds and possible precipitation in the Atlantic Ocean. The dividing line of wind flow regimes extends from the southern border of Haiti and the Dominican Republic to the coast of Costa Rica near 10N83W. The upper level wind flow that is to the west of that line is cyclonic. The upper level wind flow that is to the east of that line is from the SW. Rain showers are comparatively more possible to the east of the dividing line of upper level cyclonic wind flow and upper level SW wind flow. Comparatively drier air in subsidence is evident in water vapor imagery to the west of the dividing line. The 24-hour rainfall total in inches for the period ending at 25/0000 UTC...according to the PAN AMERICAN TEMPERATURE AND PRECIPITATION TABLES...MIATPTPAN/SXCA01 KNHC...is 0.16 in Curacao.

2. Gulf of Mexico - A thermal trough will develop over the Yucatan Peninsula each afternoon...move W across the Bay of Campeche, Mexico overnight and dissipate by late morning each day. A surface high will meander over the N central and NE Gulf waters today then shift N of the area on Thu. The pressure gradient will then tighten...supporting strong easterly winds across most of the Gulf from Thu night through Sat morning. A fresh to locally strong E breeze forecast along the N coasts of the Yucatan and Cuba late Sat.
3. Caribbean Sea - Strong nocturnal trade winds are forecast along the NW coast of Colombia through Fri. Strong NE pulses are expected across the NW and N central Caribbean from Thu evening through late Sat night. Large N swell forecast in NE Caribbean passages on Sat and Sun.
