Good Morning.
Prepared: May 09 09:39z
Synop: High over N Florida will move SE and broaden thru 11th across N Bahamas / E Caribbean. Large gale is located over NE Ontario with cold front extending SW across E New York which will move ESE and develop multiple complex centers SE of Nova Scotia overnight into 10th. Gale will strengthen gradually near 40N/60W with associated cold front extending SW across N Florida thru 12th.
Conclusion:
Zone D: E trades will slightly freshen this morning thru tomorrow evening as ridging shifts E. The squall threat is greater in the S half of the grid near Hispaniola. Swells will remain 2-4ft on average with the lower swells being in the more protected waters near land and the highest swells being in the more off shore and exposed waters in the NE section of Zone D.
Zone OBC: Gentle /mod E trades will continue thru Zone OBC over the next 2 days as the ridging will continue to persist to the N. Combined seas will remain relatively light as there are no periods of high winds forecast to cause rough seas. The highest squall threat in Zone OBS remains in the S half near SE Cuba. Winds will be highest in Windward Passage due to localized funnelling of winds.
