    Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
    Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
    America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
    Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
    imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

    Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
    1745 UTC.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    A far eastern Atlantic tropical wave has its axis along 20W from
    is in the far eastern Atlantic from 02N to 16N, moving westward
    at 10-15 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated strong convection is
    within 240 nm either side of the wave from 04N to 06N.

    Another eastern Atlantic tropical wave has its axis along 35W from
    02N to 16N, moving westward at about 15 kt. Isolated, mostly
    light showers are from 07N to 10N between 32W and 36W.

    A central Atlantic tropical wave has its axis near 53W south of
    19N. It is moving westward near 15 kt. No significant convection
    is currently occurring with this wave.

    A central Caribbean tropical wave has its axis along 79W south of
    18N, moving westward at 10 kt. Isolated showers are near the axis
    within 30 nm of 15N79W.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough axis enters the Atlantic through the coast of
    Guinea-Bissau near 12N16W and continues southwestward to 07N26W
    where it transitions to the ITCZ extends to 05N35W. It resumes at
    05N36W to the Brazil near 00.5N50W. Scattered moderate to isolated
    strong convection from 02N to 06N between 05W-16W. Scattered
    moderate convection is within 120 nm south of the ITCZ between
    26W-30W, and within 60 nm north of the ITCZ between 26W-28W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A persistent broad area of low pressure present is over the
    southwestern Gulf just offshore Mexico. Deep convection seen
    during the morning over the southwestern Gulf has diminished.
    Latest satellite imagery shows numerous moderate-type convection
    from 19N to 23N between 92W and 95W. Scattered showers and
    isolated thunderstorms are elsewhere from 19N to 25N west of 91W.
    At the surface, a tight pressure gradient between the low pressure
    area and the Atlantic ridge that extending westward into the
    north-central Gulf is generally maintaining fresh to strong
    southeast winds along with moderate to locally rough seas to
    around 9 ft south of 26N and west of 88W. Elsewhere, moderate or
    weaker anticyclonic winds and slight to moderate seas prevail.

    For the forecast, the aforementioned broad area of low pressure
    will move inland northeastern Mexico by early Sun. The system
    could re-emerge over the NW Gulf on Tue or Wed while interacting
    with a frontal boundary, however, conditions there are also
    expected to be only marginally conducive for development. The
    pressure gradient between the low pressure area and a ridge over
    the NE Gulf will support fresh to strong SE winds and moderate to
    rough seas, accompanied by scattered showers and thunderstorms,
    through Sun night. Atlantic high pressure will build westward into
    the Gulf Tue and Wed, with the associated pressure gradient
    leading to moderate to fresh southerly winds basin-wide.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    The subtropical ridge over the central Atlantic extends westward
    near 27N to across Florida. The related pressure gradient is
    generally allowing for fresh to near gale-force trade winds along
    with moderate in the central and southeastern portions of the
    Caribbean and Gulf of Honduras as seen in the latest scatterometer
    data passes. Moderate to fresh trade winds along with moderate
    seas are elsewhere, except for lighter trades winds of gentle
    speeds over the waters between Cuba and 20N west of about 75W.
    Seas are in the 2 to 4 range with these winds. Moderate or
    lighter winds along with slight to moderate seas are elsewhere
    across the basin.

    Isolated showers and thunderstorms are north of 18N between
    southwestern Haiti and 84W, including the approach to the
    Windward Passage, as divergence aloft sustains this activity.
    Strong convection across interior portions of the Gulf of Honduras
    and over southern Belize is along the southeast periphery of the
    area of broad low pressure that is in the southwestern Gulf of
    America.

    For the forecast, the Atlantic ridge will generally remain in
    place through Sun, with its related pressure gradient allowing for
    a large area of fresh to strong trade winds and moderate to rough
    seas across the central Caribbean. Expect highest winds and seas
    off the coast of Colombia. Fresh to strong southeast winds and
    rough seas will also persist over the Gulf of Honduras and
    northwestern Caribbean west of 85W through tonight. The ridge
    north of the area will reorganize Sun night through Mon then shift
    slowly northeastward through midweek, leading to a slight
    decrease in wind and seas across the basin.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    A stationary front extends from 31N36W to 29N41W, then dissipating
    to 29N43W and trough to 29N47W and to near 31N52W. Isolated
    rather weak showers are seen from 29N to 30N between 46W and 49W.
    The remainder of the tropical Atlantic is dominated by a broad
    subtropical ridge that extends across central Florida, and that is
    anchored by a 1026 mb high near 31N30W and a 1022 mb high near
    26N58W, supporting moderate to fresh trade winds south of 21N
    west of 35W along with mostly moderate seas. Moderate to fresh
    northerly winds and moderate seas exist north of about 15N
    and east of 22W while moderate northeast winds are from 12N
    to 25N between 22W and 35W. Seas are in the moderate range are
    in these areas. Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and slight to
    moderate seas prevail.

    For the forecast west of 55W, the Atlantic ridge will generally
    remain in place through Sun. The ridge will then reorganize along
    about 60W Sun night and Mon, then shift slowly NE Tue through
    Wed. This pattern will support moderate E to SE trade winds S of
    22N and a gentle anticyclonic flow elsewhere through Sun. Fresh
    southwest winds will develop across the northwest waters north of
    about 29N and west of 74W Sun evening through Tue as a weak
    frontal system moves through the SE U.S. Expect fresh to strong
    winds each afternoon through late evening across Atlantic waters
    near Puerto Rico and Hispaniola.

    Marine Weather Discussion for the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea,
    and Tropical North Atlantic from 07N to 19N between 55W and 64W
    and the Southwest North Atlantic including the Bahamas

    This is the last Marine Weather Discussion issued by the National
    Hurricane Center. For marine information, please see the Tropical
    Weather Discussion at: hurricanes.gov.

    ...GULF OF MEXICO...

    High pressure along the middle Atlantic coasts extending SW to
    the NE Gulf will remain generally stationary throughout the
    week. This will support moderate to fresh E to SE winds over the
    basin through Tue. Winds will increase to fresh to strong late
    Tue through Fri as low pressure deepens across the Southern
    Plains.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA AND TROPICAL N ATLANTIC FROM 07N TO 19N BETWEEN
    55W AND 64W...

    A ridge NE of the Caribbean Sea will shift eastward and weaken,
    diminishing winds and seas modestly through Wed. Trade winds
    will increase basin wide Wed night through Fri night as high
    pressure builds across the western Atlantic.

    ...SW N ATLANTIC INCLUDING THE BAHAMAS...

    A weakening frontal boundary from 25N65W to the central Bahamas
    will drift SE and dissipate through late Tue. Its remnants will
    drift N along 23N-24N. The pressure gradient between high
    pressure off of Hatteras and the frontal boundary will support
    an area of fresh to strong easterly winds N of 23N and W of 68W
    with seas to 11 ft E of the Bahamas late Tue through Fri.
