MARINE WEATHER HF VOICE BROADCAST  
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI, FL  
404 AM EST SUN DEC 15 2024  
 
MARINE WEATHER HF VOICE BROADCAST FOR THE TROPICAL N ATLANTIC  
FROM 07N TO 19N W OF 55W, THE N ATLANTIC FROM 19N TO  
31N W OF 55W INCLUDING THE BAHAMAS, AND THE CARIBBEAN SEA.  
 
SEAS GIVEN AS SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT, WHICH IS THE AVERAGE  
HEIGHT OF THE HIGHEST 1/3 OF THE WAVES. INDIVIDUAL WAVES MAY BE  
MORE THAN TWICE THE SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT.  
 
SYNOPSIS FOR CARIBBEAN SEA AND TROPICAL N ATLANTIC FROM  
07N TO 19N W OF 55W  
   
SYNOPSIS  
A STRONG PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL CONTINUE TO FORCE  
FRESH TO STRONG NE WINDS OVER THE NW CARIBBEAN UNTIL MON MORNING  
AND THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON IN THE WINDWARD PASSAGE. A BROAD  
SURFACE TROUGH OVER THE SW N ATLANTIC WATERS EXTENDING INTO THE  
CARIBBEAN THROUGH HISPANIOLA WILL DRIFT WESTWARD ACROSS THE  
CENTRAL CARIBBEAN TODAY WHILE WEAKENING. THIS TROUGH WILL CAUSE  
THE PRESSURE GRADIENT TO RELAX ACROSS MOST OF THE CARIBBEAN,  
ALLOWING FOR GENTLE TO MODERATE TRADES ACROSS EASTERN AND  
CENTRAL BASIN THROUGH MON. LOOKING AHEAD, A BUILDING RIDGE N OF  
THE AREA WILL ENHANCE THE TRADE WIND FLOW OVER THE CENTRAL  
CARIBBEAN TO FRESH TO STRONG SPEEDS TUE NIGHT THROUGH THU.
