Synopsis: Good morning. A ridge of high pressure that currently extends SW'ward
from 32N/53W to 29N/73W will continue to persist over the next several days.
Current satellite shows squalls that are associated with and area of low
pressure that is centered near 15N/75W. The low is expected to remain
stationary over the next 3-5days and will continue to produce squalls from
Panama to NE of Puerto Rico. Fortunately, no tropical development is expected
in these squalls. A cold front that currently extends SW'ward from 43N/55W to
33N/75W will move NE'ward and extend from 47N/47W to 40N/50W on the 10th. An
area of low pressure is forecast to develop near 36N/70W on the 10th and will
strengthen while moving NE'ward to over Newfoundland by the 11th. Another cold
front associated with the aforementioned developing low is forecast to extend
SW'ward from 41N/62W to Jacksonville on the 10th and will move E'ward and
extend from 41N/53W to Bermuda on the 11th.
