MARINE FORECAST FOR SEAS AROUND CURAÇAO:
.

Synopsis:
A tropical wave will cross our area during the next 24 hours and promote chances
for some local showers. Also the wind strength will increase during the day and
resulting in a slightly rough sea, mainly in the northern part of our island.
Furthermore, visibility will be reduced due to the presence of fine dust from
the Sahara and this will continue during the coming days.

Weather:
Generally partly cloudy with a chance of a few local showers. Winds are expected
to be breezy and visibility will be slightly reduced.

Visibility:
20 to 30 kilometer.

Easterly and moderate to fresh; force 4 to 5 (20 to 39 km/h, 11 to 21 knots).
Higher gust to strong; force 6 (40 to 50 km/h, 22 to 27 knots).

Synopsis.....Fresh to strong trade winds and rough seas across the
south-central Caribbean will expand across most of the central and into
the west-central basin, including through the Windward Passage,
through Sat morning, as central Atlantic high pressure along
31N-32N gradually shifts westward to near 75W. Strong to near
gale-force winds are expected offshore of northern Colombia and
in the Gulf of Venezuela each night and early morning into Sat.
Winds and seas will diminish slightly Sat into early next week as
high pressure weakens north of the area. Elsewhere, pulsing
moderate to fresh E to NE winds are expected in the Gulf of
Honduras each afternoon and evening into this weekend. Moderate
to fresh trade winds and moderate seas will continue in the
eastern basin into next week.
