MARINE FORECAST FOR SEAS AROUND CURAÇAO:
.

Synopsis:
Currently, a weakening Atlantic high will continue to produce relatively calmer
local seas, although waves will remain somewhat elevated over the exposed near
shore northern and eastern waters, where they may still peak near 8 feet. An
amplifying Atlantic high building back into the Caribbean by early next week
will bring a return of gusty winds and generally above normal sea states.

Weather
Partly cloudy in general with an ongoing dry condition.

Visibility:
18 to 28 kilometer in somewhat hazy condition.

Winds:
Easterly and moderate to fresh; force 4 to 5 (20 to 39 km/h, 11 to 21 knots).
Occasionally strong n gusts; force 6 (40 to 50 km/h, 22 to 27 knots).

Seas:
Moderate to locally somewhat rough with wave heights between 1 and 2 meters (3
and 7 feet). Highest wave action stays over the northern and eastern exposed
coastal waters.

.
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 possibly near gale in gusts; force 6 to 7 (40 to 61 km/h,
22 to 33 knots).
.
Synopsis...The pressure gradient between high pressure north of
the area and relatively lower pressures in northern South
America will support fresh to strong trades over the south-
central Caribbean well into the upcoming week bringing rough
seas across those waters. Fresh to strong trades will pulse each
evening over the Gulf of Honduras through the period. Fresh
trades elsewhere across the basin will begin to increase in
coverage starting early next week as N Atlantic high pressure
begins to shift southeastward tightening the pressure gradient.
