Synopsis...Tight pressure gradient between the subtropical
ridge located north of the islands and lower pressures in
Colombia will support fresh to locally near gale-force easterly
trade winds and moderate to rough seas across much of the
central Caribbean, with moderate to fresh trades elsewhere from
11N to 18N. These conditions will persist through the workweek.
Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and slight to moderate seas
are expected, except moderate to fresh mainly in the evenings
near the Windward Passage and Lee of Cuba through midweek. Winds
may diminish across the basin by the end of the week into the
upcoming weekend as the pressures gradient relaxes, with seas
also slightly subsiding.
