Synopsis for the the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas .SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong NE winds will occur off the coast of Florida and over the northern Bahamas, generally north of 25N and west of 70W, today into early next week as a weak area of low pressure meanders near the Bahamas and Florida over the next several days. There is a low chance of tropical development with this system over the next 48 hours. Farther east, strong winds are expected east of a cold front in the central Atlantic into early Sat, with fresh N to NE winds occurring in the wake of the front. The front will lift northward and weaken this weekend. Large N swell generated by previous Tropical Cyclones Imelda and Humberto will continue to expand southeastward this weekend, leading to widespread rough seas north of 10N. Very rough seas in excess of 12 ft are expected north of 23N this weekend, including near the northern Bahamas. Looking ahead, a tropical wave has just emerged off the coast of Africa. The wave is forecast to interact with another disturbance over the eastern tropical Atlantic, and then move westward after that. Environmental conditions are expected to become conducive for some slow development of the system in a few days, and a tropical depression could form near or east of the Lesser Antilles by the end of next week. There is a medium chance of tropical development within the next 7 days. ATLC waters from 27N to 31N W of 77W .TONIGHT...E winds 15 to 20 kt. Seas 11 to 12 ft. .SAT...E winds 15 to 25 kt.
