in this area. As this low gradually moves eastward over the next
couple of days, both winds and seas should begin to subside
starting early Mon morning but frequent gusts to gale force along
with seas above 12 ft will persist through Mon afternoon. Please

...GULF OF MEXICO...

Surface ridging continues to dominate across the gulf waters
supporting mainly moderate to locally fresh N winds and seas in
the 3 to 5 ft range E of 90W where there is a tighter pressure
grandient, and gentle to moderate NE to E winds with seas to 3 ft
W of 90W.

For the forecast, surface ridging will dominate the Gulf waters
through midweek. Moderate to locally fresh northerly winds across
the eastern Gulf will continue through Mon night. Mainly gentle to

through Tue while dissipating. Fresh to strong northerly winds are
forecast within about 60 nm of coast of Nicaragua, in the wake of

prevail across the east and central Caribbean through mid-week,
with the exception of moderate to fresh trade winds near the coast
of Colombia, and in the Gulf of Venezuela.

Numerous moderate to isolated strong convection is evident S of
Bermuda, N of 28N between 63W and 69W. Farther E, an mid to
upper-level low well SSW of Azores near 28N34W is producing
scattered moderate convection N of 18N between 30W and 39W.

seas of 9 to 12 ft dominate waters near the Canary Islands, N of
23N between the NW African coast and 20W. N of 20N, light to
gentle with locally moderate winds and seas at 4 to 6 ft are noted
between 20W and 59W. Gentle to moderate ENE to NE trades with
seas at 4 to 6 ft exist from 08N to 20N between the African coast
and the Lesser Antilles/S American coast. Gentle to moderate E to
