MARINE FORECAST FOR SEAS AROUND CURAƇAO:
.

Synopsis:
A strong and stable high over the Atlantic supports an occasional strong wind
across the forecast waters.
Wind driven waves could build today to about 6 foot, but increases during the
next several days as wind
strengthens.

Weather:
Light to partly cloudy with no significant precipitation.

Visibility:
25 to 35 kilometer.

Winds:
Easterly and moderate; force 3 to 4 (12 to 30 km/h, 7 to 16 knots). Occasionally
fresh to strong in gusts; force 5 to 6 (31 to 50 km/h, 17 to 27 knots).

Seas:
Moderate with wave heights between 1 and 2 meters (3 and 6 feet).

.

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 in gusts; force 6 (40 to 50 km/h, 22 to 27 knots).

Synopsis...High pressure north of the Caribbean will force
fresh to locally near gale-force trades, along with rough seas,
across the south-central Caribbean through much of the forecast
period. Moderate to fresh trades and moderate seas will prevail
over the north-central and eastern Caribbean through the weekend
and into early next week, perhaps increase in coverage over the
tropical Atlantic and eastern Caribbean starting Sunday night as a
tropical wave moves across those waters. Elsewhere, moderate or
lighter winds and slight to moderate seas are expected.
