MARINE FORECAST FOR SEAS AROUND CURAÇAO:

CODE YELLOW: A CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR EXCESSIVE SAHARAN DUST.

CODE YELLOW: A CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR ROUGH SEAS.
.

Synopsis:
Extension of an area of ​​high pressure over the North Atlantic Ocean
continues to maintain conditions with less possibility of precipitation on our
island during today. Also, moderate to occasionally dense Saharan dust will move
into our region, causing reduced visibility and air quality. Furthermore, a
large pressure difference will generate strong to possibly near gale winds in
gusts, causing quite rough seas. For these reasons, there are two cautionary
statements (Code Yellow) in effect, one for rough seas and the other for
excessive Saharan dust.

Weather
Partly cloudy and mostly dry with occasional slightly strong winds. Sahara dust
continues to maintain reduced visibility and degraded air quality.

Visibility:
5 to 15 kilometer in haze.

Winds:
Easterly and moderate to fresh; force 4 to 5 (20 to 39 km/h, 11 to 21 knots).
Occasionally strong to possibly near gale in gusts; force 6 to 7 (40 to 61 km/h,
22 to 33 knots)

Seas:
Moderate to quite rough with wave heights between 1.5 and 2.5 meters (4 and 8
feet). Small boat users are advised not to sail far from the coast, because of
the reduced visibility due to the presence of Sahara dust. There is also a
cautionary statement for rough seas (Code Yellow) in force and swimmers and
boaters are advised to exercise caution.

.
Local wind forecast for the next 48 hours:
Easterly and moderate to fresh; force 4 to 5 (20 to 39 km/h, 11 to 21 knots).
Occasionally strong to near gale in gusts; force 6 to 7 (40 to 61 km/h, 22 to 33
knots).
.
Synopsis...Tight gradient between the Atlantic ridge and
Colombian low will support fresh to strong trade winds and
moderate to rough seas at the central and part of the southwestern
basin through Wed morning. Winds and seas will diminish slightly
starting late Wed as the ridge north of the basin weakens by Thu.
Fresh to strong winds with moderate seas are expected at the Gulf
of Honduras through Fri night. Gentle to moderate E to SE winds
with slight to moderate seas will prevail for the rest of the
Caribbean Sea through the end of the week.
