ARC Weather forecast 03/12/2015

Synopsis: Good morning. High pressure is centered near 37N/41W. Associated ridging extends SW to the NE Caribbean, S to near 13N between the Leeward Islands and the Cape Verdes, and ESE to the Canary Islands. This high will move E over the Azores by tomorrow morning as the ridging remains in place. The high will then weaken and move slightly SE on the 05/12 as a cold front passes to the north of the high. However, the ridging is expected to remain in place for the next several days.

Conclusion: Winds and swell will increase in the more N forecast grids through the day today as the high center passes to their north. Overall, E trade winds will persist over the forecast area. Over waters east of about 46W, these winds are expected to be slightly north of east. The sea state will be mostly a wind driven swell produced by the trade winds.
