..THE TROPICS REMAIN QUIET FOR NOW..

 


NOTHING OF INTEREST IN THE TROPICS FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.  

SO FAR THE ONLY AREA THAT IS A FLOOD PROBLEM  IS THIS TROUPHINESS OVER EASTERN CUBA AND THE BAHAMAS THAT HAS A PERSISITANT TRANNING FLOW OF STORMS OVER THIS REGION.  A DEFINIATE FLOOD POTENTIAL FOR THIS REGION.

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of Mexico, 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 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through 
1000 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURES...

EXCESSIVE RAINFALL IS POSSIBLE FOR CUBA AND THE BAHAMAS:

Moist southerly middle level wind flow and a nearby upper level 
jet stream are helping to maintain the potential for heavy 
rainfall amounts. More than 4 inches (100 mm) of rain have been 
measured in isolated areas in eastern Cuba during the last 24 
hours. More rain is forecast during the next 2 days or 3 days. The
comparatively greatest rain amounts are expected to occur through
Saturday afternoon in parts of eastern and central Cuba and in 
the central Bahamas. It is possible that these rains may cause 
flooding, especially in the mountainous areas of eastern and 
central Cuba. Please read the latest forecast from your national 
meteorological service for more information. 

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An Atlantic Ocean tropical wave is along 15W from 10N southward,
moving W at 10 kt. Isolated showers are noted within 60 nm of the
wave. 

An Atlantic Ocean tropical wave is along 38W from 12N southward,
moving W from 10-15 kt. No significant convection is noted with 
this wave at this time. 

An Atlantic Ocean tropical wave is along 58W from 12N southward,
moving W at 10-15 kt. No significant convection is noted with 
this wave at this time. 

A Caribbean Sea tropical wave is along 77W from 12N southward,
moving W at 10-15 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated strong
convection is noted from 09N to 13N between 76W and 78W. 

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough passes through the coastal plains of Guinea
near 10N14W to 07N21W. The ITCZ continues from 07N21W to 08N37W
and then W of a tropical wave near 09N39W to 07N49W. Scattered
moderate isolated strong convection is noted from 00N to 10N
between 12W and 52W. 

...GULF OF MEXICO...

The surface pressure gradient is currently flat and weak. Light to
gentle variable winds prevail with seas reaching 2 ft. Isolated
showers are noted south of Louisiana, otherwise no other
significant convective area is noted at this time. 

For the forecast, a weak pressure gradient will generally prevail
across the basin today. Light to gentle winds can be expected 
through Sat morning. As low pressure develops over Texas on Sat, 
moderate to locally fresh return flow will prevail over the 
western Gulf through the weekend and into early next week. 

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Please, read the SPECIAL FEATURES section. It is possible for 
heavy rainfall amounts to reach Cuba through Saturday afternoon. 

High pressure in the Central Atlantic extends across the area.
Fresh to strong E to SE winds prevail across the central Caribbean
with seas to 8 ft. In the eastern Caribbean, moderate to locally
fresh trade winds prevail with seas to 5 ft. In the western basin,
gentle to moderate S winds prevail with seas to 4 ft.

Scattered moderate to strong convection is noted across Cuba and
Jamaica. The strongest thunderstorms are noted N of 16N between
77W and 81W. Isolated showers and thunderstorms are noted along
the monsoon trough in the SW Caribbean with stronger thunderstorms
near the tropical wave. 

For the forecast, high pressure over the central Atlantic 
extending across the area today will maintain fresh to strong 
easterly trade winds. As the ridge weakens, winds and seas will 
modestly diminish across the basin through the weekend. A return 
to a more typical easterly trade wind regime is expected early 
next week with fresh to strong trades in the south- central 
Caribbean and Gulf of Honduras. 

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Please read the SPECIAL FEATURES section. It is possible for 
heavy rainfall amounts to reach the Bahamas through Saturday 
afternoon.

Moderate to fresh winds are noted off the Florida and Bahamas
coast due to pressure gradient between high pressure over the 
central Altantic and low pressure over the SE US. Scattered 
moderate convection is noted from central Cuba northward into the 
Bahamas, S of 30N and W of 69W. Seas are 5-8 ft, with the highest 
seas near 30N62W. Meanwhile, a 1019 mb high pres is located in the
central Atlantic near 26N55W. Light to gentle winds are located 
underneath the high pres with seas to 4 ft. 

In the eastern Atlantic, a trough extends from 30N34W to 20N45W.
No significant convection is noted near the trough. Moderate N
winds are west of the trough. A 1015 mb low is located near 23N29W
with a trough extending along the low from 27N19W to 16N41W.
Gentle winds are along this feature and no significant convection.
Seas are to 5 ft. 

For the forecast, high pressure extending from the central 
Atlantic will create a tight pressure gradient with low pressure 
off the SE US. This will maintain fresh to strong SW winds over 
the SW Atlantic through Sat morning. As high pressure weakens, 
gentle to moderate winds will prevail over the area through the 
weekend and into early next week.

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of Mexico, 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 
1730 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURES...

Caribbean Heavy Rainfall...
A mid to upper level trough extends from the central Florida 
Panhandle to the northwest Caribbean south of western Cuba. The 
atmosphere has been very moist ahead of this trough with a deep 
layer of southerly flow. The moist pattern along with divergent 
flow aloft on the eastern side of the trough has been supporting 
clusters of showers and thunderstorms over parts of south Florida,
Cuba, the Bahamas and Hispaniola over the past day or so, to 
include heavy flooding in Haiti. The moisture is slowly shifting 
eastward ahead of the trough, but there will still be enough 
moisture through tonight that coupled with afternoon heating may 
support additional showers and thunderstorms over eastern Cuba and
Hispaniola. Localized flooding and mudslides are therefore 
possible, especially in areas that have already experienced heavy 
rainfall in the past couple of days. A gradually drying pattern 
will follow through mid week in these areas starting Monday. 
Please refer to bulletins and advisories from the local weather 
services in these areas for more information.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

The axis of an Atlantic Ocean tropical wave is 18W-20W, from 13N 
southward, moving westward 10 kt. A few showers may be active 
near the wave axis at 04N.

The axis of an Atlantic Ocean tropical wave is near 46W-48W, from
12N southward, moving westward at 10 to 15 kt. No significant 
convection is evident near the wave axis. 

The axis of an Atlantic Ocean tropical wave is near 61W-62W moving
through the southern Windward Islands at 5 to 10 kt. A few showers
may be active along the coast of Venezuela near the mouth of the
Orinoco River.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough remains mostly over western Africa across
eastern Senegal and Guinea-Bissau but terminates along the 
Atlantic coast. Segments of the ITCZ extend from 06N20W to 09N45W,
and from 07N50W to 10N60W. Scattered moderate convection is
evident from 03N to 05N between 25W and 28W, and from 08N to 09N
between 53W and 58W. 

...GULF OF MEXICO...

Weak high pressure is analyzed over the western Gulf, following
behind the remnant low of Arlene that is now moving eastward
through the Straits of Florida. Gentle to moderate winds prevail 
across the Gulf of Mexico. Seas are in the 4-6 ft range over the 
waters south of 25N, and 2-4 ft north of 25N. 

For the forecast, the weak high pressure will prevail across the 
basin through the middle of the week, maintaining mainly gentle 
to moderate winds. Fresh winds will pulse off the western coast 
of the Yucatan Peninsula tonight and Mon night. 

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Moderate to fresh SW flow was possible early this morning off the
southern coast of western Cuba, associated with the remnant low 
of Arlene currently north of region moving eastward through the 
Straits of Florida. Combined seas may reaching 5 ft in this area.
These winds are diminishing, leaving gentle to moderate breezes
and 2 to 4 ft seas west of 70W. Moderate to fresh SE winds and 3
to 5 ft seas persist east of 70W. 

For the forecast, locally fresh SW winds and seas to 5 ft may
persist off the southern coast of western and central Cuba this
afternoon, although winds will be diminishing through late
afternoon. Elsewhere, a weak pressure pattern will maintain 
gentle to moderate trades across the Caribbean and the tropical 
Atlantic, with occasional fresh pulses along the coast of 
Venezuela starting Mon night. Winds and seas will increase 
slightly over the eastern and central Caribbean by mid week. 

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Showers and a few thunderstorms persist over the northern Bahamas,
ahead of the remnant low of Arlene which is currently approaching 
from the Straits of Florida. Farther north, a surface trough
extends from low pressure near Bermuda to north of the northern
Bahamas near 28N78W. A scatterometer satellite pass from this
morning confirmed a band of fresh to strong SW winds within 270 to
480 nm southeast of the low pressure between 55W and 60W. Seas are
estimated to be 8 to 10 ft in this band of winds. Farther east,
1007 mb low pressure is centered near 28N43W. Scatterometer data
showed fresh to strong westerly winds within 120 nm south of this
low. Combined seas are estimated to be 8 to 12 ft in the area of
strong winds. Strong winds and rough seas are also evident north
of 25N between 20W and 30W, near a trough associated with the low
pressure. Gentle to moderate winds and 4 to 6 ft seas are noted
elsewhere. 

For the forecast west of 55W, the remnant low of Arlene will move
northeastward from the Straits of Florida and weaken to a trough 
across the NW Bahamas on Mon. Atlantic high pressure extends from 
the central Atlantic westward along 19N and then WNW to the 
southeast Bahamas, and will shift slowly northward to along 23N by
Thu. Fresh to locally strong NE to E winds and building seas are 
expected over the waters off northeast Florida through Mon, as a 
weakening cold front sinks S into the region.
