ARC Weather Forescast 10/12/2016

Synopsis: Low pressure west of Iberia near 40N/15W extends a weak front S'ward to near Madeira. The low will remain nearly stationary thru tomorrow, weakening tomorrow and dissipating tomorrow night. The front will drift E'ward into the Canary Islands by tomorrow morning, tending to stall and gradually dissipate along 13W thru tomorrow night.

By the morning of 12/12, an axis of broad ridging will extend from Iberia SW'ward across Madeira and this will remain thru 13/12.

Also on 12/12, expect a strong front from just west of the Azores SW'ward to near 25N/50W and this will move SE'ward across the Azores thru the morning of 13/12 to near 25N/40W, then morning of the 14th it will extend from just east of Madeira to near 25N/25W.

A broad area of high pressure will move off the E'rn coast of the U.S. on the morning of the 11th and move E'ward. By late on the 13th, expect the high pressure to be centered near 35N/40W with moderately strong ridging S'ward from 30N to 15N and from 30W to 60W. This will spread E'ward across the remainder of the E'rn Atlantic thru 15/12.

Conclusion: Moderate to fresh ENE'ly winds are now expected across all grids thru out the morning of 12/12. Strong ENE'ly gusts will build mainly across Grids RR, QQ and LL by 11/12 and also in KK by the morning of 12/12. Long period swells are expected to become more moderate period across all grids from W to E thruout the next few days. The larger sets of swells are expected to be mostly on the S'rn edges of Grids RR, QQ and PP.
