SYNOPSIS
MODERATE TO FRESH TRADES IN THE EASTERN, CENTRAL AND
PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHWEST CARIBBEAN WILL REACH FRESH TO STRONG
SPEEDS FRI EVENING, CONTINUING THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK AS HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS NEAR THE BAHAMAS IN THE WAKE OF A COLD FRONT.
THE RESULTANT PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN THE ASSOCIATED RIDGE AND
LOWER PRESSURE OVER COLOMBIA WILL LEAD TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF
NEAR GALE-FORCE WINDS ACROSS THE SOUTH-CENTRAL WATERS LATE SAT
THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK, WITH PULSING GALES AT NIGHT OFFSHORE
COLOMBIA. ROUGH TO VERY ROUGH SEAS ARE EXPECTED WITH THE
STRONGEST WINDS LATE SAT THROUGH MON. FRESH NE WINDS IN THE

LOOKING AHEAD, THE TAIL OF A COLD FRONT WILL ENTER THE NW
CARIBBEAN EARLY FRI AND DISSIPATE FRI EVENING. THE
AFOREMENTIONED BUILDING HIGH PRESSURE WILL RESULT IN FRESH TO
STRONG NE WINDS RESUMING IN THE WINDWARD PASSAGE AND THE LEE OF
CUBA FRI EVENING THROUGH SUN NIGHT, AND EAST WINDS OF THE SAME
SPEED IN THE GULF OF HONDURAS SUN EVENING.
