..Synopsis...
The pressure gradient between high pressure over the
western Atlantic and relatively lower pressure to the south will
generally allow for moderate to fresh trades across the basin
through late Sun night. Trades weaken to light to gentle speeds
over the western half of the basin Mon and Mon night, then
increase back to moderate speeds afterwards. Winds will pulse at
fresh to strong speeds in the Windward Passage today. Later
today, these winds will be mostly at fresh speeds, then
at fresh to strong speeds through early Sun. Fresh to strong
northeast to east winds are expected south of Hispaniola to near
16N Sat night through early Sun afternoon.
