Seas given as significant wave height, which is the average height of the highest 1/3 of the waves. Individual waves may be more than twice the significant wave height. Synopsis for Caribbean Sea and Tropical N Atlantic from 07N to 19N W of 55W .SYNOPSIS...A strong pressure gradient from the Bermuda High to the Colombian Low will continue to produce fresh to strong trades across the Caribbean through Sat morning with near gales just north of Colombia. From Sat through early next week, the Bermuda High weakens leading toward reduced winds. However, strong trades will still continue north of Colombia, south of Hispaniola and over the Gulf of Honduras on Sat and Sun. Looking ahead to Mon, as the weakened Bermuda High shifts eastward, trades across the Caribbean will be reduced to only moderate to fresh. NW Caribbean W of 85W .TONIGHT...E winds 15 to 25 kt.
