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 - Low pressure over the NW Gulf will track slowly E and drag a cold front across the Gulf through late Mon and early Tue. High pressure will build in the wake of the front.
3. Caribbean Sea - Mainly fresh trade winds will prevail across the central and E Caribbean and Atlantic waters through Mon. Large trade wind swell will move into the Atlantic waters Tue night. A cold front will reach the NW Caribbean late Tue. The front will stall and weaken from eastern Cuba to Belize through mid week.
3a. Middle to upper level trough is noted on water vapor imagery over the western North Atlc with axis extending from 39N64W to a broad base near 34N72W. This troughing supports a stationary front from 31N74W to the Florida peninsula near 26N80W. Widely scattered showers and isolated tstms are occurring N of 27N W of 70W. As mentioned above...an area of low pressure is forecast to develop offshore of the Carolinas by Monday night with the current stationary front becoming the focus for warm and cold front development within the system. Aside from the strong wind field forecast...the cold front will move eastward to 60W by Friday with a trailing stationary front lingering SW toward the Windward Passage region. High pressure will build in W of the front providing strong to near gale N-NW winds Tuesday night through Wednesday night. Farther east...another cold front extends into the discussion area near 32N51W SW to 27N60W becoming stationary to 26N70W. Widely scattered showers and isolated tstms are occurring within 45 NM either side of the cold front with isolated showers occurring elsewhere N of the front. Finally...the remainder of the eastern Atlantic is under the influence of a surface ridge anchored by a 1040 mb high centered NE of the Azores near 42N20W. No significant convection is occurring...however near gale force E-NE winds were noted on earlier ASCAT data from 26N- 34N E of 30W.
