Synopsis...
Broad high pressure located between Bermuda and the
Bahamas will support fresh to locally strong trade winds in the
lee of Cuba and Windward Passage during the next few
days. These winds will gradually diminish this weekend into
early next week as a cold front moves across the western
Atlantic and the pressure gradient relaxes. High pressure that
will build in behind the front is expected to support fresh to
locally strong trade winds in the south-central Caribbean
starting Mon.
