Synopsis...A strong tropical wave along 70W combined with the
Bermuda High north of the region will enhance the trades over the
central Caribbean tonight through Saturday. Peak winds should reach
gale force just north of Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela
Friday night into Saturday morning. Additionally, another strong tropical
wave- currently Invest AL92 - should start impacting the Leeward
Islands beginning tomorrow evening. Strong to near gale force
along with areas of heavy rain are expected Friday night and Saturday.
These weather conditions will shift westward toward the central
Caribbean and the Greater Antilles, including the Windward Passage
from Sat night through Mon. Afterwards the tropical wave may
weaken, as it moves toward the W Caribbean. Note that if Invest
AL92 forms into a tropical cyclone, the winds and waves expected
may be higher than indicated here.
