245 FZNT26 KNHC 220138 OFFN05 NAVTEX Marine Forecast NWS National Hurricane Center Miami, FL 938 PM EDT Thu Aug 21 2025 ...Please refer to Coastal Waters Forecasts (CWF) available through NOAA Weather Radio and other means for detailed Coastal Waters Forecasts... .SYNOPSIS...In the wake of Hurricane Erin, the central Atlantic high pressure will build west-southwestward toward the Bahamas. This will allow for the normal trade wind flow to return to the regional waters through the period. A long period northerly swell from distant Hurricane Erin will arrive as early as Friday afternoon, and into the weekend, resulting in hazardous seas for the Atlantic waters and passages. An area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms associated with a tropical wave is located a few hundred nautical miles east of the Leeward Islands. Environmental conditions appear conducive for further development of this system, and a tropical depression is likely to form this weekend while it moves near or to the north of the northern Leeward Islands.
