ARC Europe Weather Bermuda-Azores 25 May 2018



Weather: Bermuda to Azores
Prepared: May 25 07:24UTC



Synopsis: High near 50N/23W extends broad ridging SW to Azores and to 25N. Associated ridging extends E to Canaries and SW to Bahamas. High will shift S to near 30N/27W thru 30th, while the associated ridging changes little.

Gale near 50N/45W extends a cold front SW to near 30N/65W. Gale will lift NE to near 63N/37W thru tomorrow afternoon while the associated cold front extends SW to 30N/45W thru this time. Front expected to gradually weaken thru tomorrow.

A cut-off Low near 40N/09W will drift thru tomorrow afternoon over Iberian Peninsula, weakening.

Low pressure will be centered over N Iberia by the afternoon of 26th, and will lift NW into the Bay of Biscay thru the 27th.

Low centered over central Quebec will move quickly SE to near 46N/45W by late tomorrow evening, strengthening into a gale. Will then lift NE to near 45N/40W thru 28th while extending a cold front SW to near 30N/55W.

A trough of low pressure will be in place between 65W to 70W, and between 37N/43W by the evening of 27th. Will tend to strengthen into a Low near 38N/65W by morning of 28th, then lifting NE to near 45N/47W strengthening into a gale. The gale will then extend a cold front SW along 30N thru the morning of 31st.


Conclusion:
We will be monitoring the E progress of a cold front over the next several days as it is expected to mainly impact the N'rn zones. The front will tend to stall across Zone JJ and LL thru the 27th.

Across Zone JJ, fresh to strong SW breezes in advance of the cold front. Similar conditions across Zone LL as in Zone JJ. Peak swell sets of 11-14 feet will develop across Zone JJ today, with some abatement thru the morning of 28th. Additionally, W swell sets of 8-11 feet will prevail. Across Zone II, peak SW swell sets of 6-9 feet will prevail by this evening. Across Zone KK, peak NW swell sets of 4-7 feet will be expected by tomorrow morning. NW

3-6 foot swell sets can be expected across Zone MM, and NW 5-8 foot swell sets developing across Zone NN. Peak SW swell sets of 6-9 feet can be expected across Zone II this evening into tomorrow morning. Showers and squalls will be expected across each of the zones due to the close proximity of the cold front.
