    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    The axis of a tropical wave in the far E Atlantic is near 21W,=20
    from 03N to 17N, and is moving westward at around 10 kt.=20
    Scattered moderate and isolated strong convection is observed=20
    from 08N to 16N between 14W and 30W. Environmental conditions=20
    appear conducive for gradual development of this system, and a=20
    tropical depression could form by the middle or later part of this
    week. This system is expected to move westward to west-=20
    northwestward at around 15 mph across the eastern and central=20
    tropical Atlantic throughout the week. There is a low chance of=20
    tropical cyclone formation in the next 48 hours, and a medium=20
    chance of formation in the next 7 days. Refer to the latest NHC=20
    Tropical Weather Outlook at https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.hurrican= es.gov__;!!DZ3fjg!6in8uLJ-S8YbXTYoS_iM_OCkg99CMtGQJJ63xZbQoZVK8cHJkrFPThwQd= -1ZW_U-lehmpWEDtMxJMI7wp3oxmYXieMw$ for more details.

    The axis of a tropical wave in the central Atlantic is near=20
    48W, from 03N to 19N, and moving westward at 10-15 kt. No=20
    significant convection is noted near this wave.

    The axis of a tropical wave in the western Caribbean is near 84W,
    south of 19N, and moving westward at around 10 kt. Numerous=20
    moderate to strong convection is observed S of 15N and W of 78W.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...=20

    The monsoon trough reaches the Atlantic through the coast of
    Mauritania near 18N16W and continues to 09N29W to 10N38W. The=20
    ITCZ extends from 10N38W to 10N46W. It resumes near 10N50W and=20
    continues westward to 10N61W. Aside from the convection noted in
    the tropical waves section above, scattered moderate convection=20
    is noted from 04N to 10N between 30W and 40W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A stationary front extends from near Naples, Florida to Baffin=20
    Bay, Texas. Scattered moderate and isolated strong convection is
    in the vicinity of the front. Gentle to moderate winds, and seas
    of 2-4 ft are N of the front. Light to gentle winds, and seas of
    1-2 ft are elsewhere across the gulf.=20
    =20=20
    For the forecast, the front will remain stationary and gradually=20
    dissipate through Tue. The front will be a focus for showers and=20 thunderstorms into mid week. Elsewhere, the weak gradient in place
    will maintain mainly gentle to moderate winds and slight to=20
    locally moderate seas through the period.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    A ridge of high pressure is over the Atlantic waters N of the
    area. The pressure gradient between this ridge and lower pressure
    over colombia is supporting fresh to strong winds in the south
    central Caribbean. Gentle to moderate winds are elsewhere E of
    80W. Light to gentle winds are found elsewhere. Seas are in the
    4-7 ft range over the south central Caribbean, and 2-4 ft
    elsewhere.=20

    For the forecast, Atlantic high pressure in combination with low=20
    pressure over northern Colombia will support moderate to fresh=20
    trades along with moderate seas across much of the central=20
    Caribbean through Sat. Fresh to occasionally strong winds are=20
    expected to pulse at night off Colombia and the Gulf of Venezuela.
    In addition, moderate to fresh winds will prevail in the Gulf of=20
    Honduras through the forecast period.

    Warning for the Agadir region issued by Meteo-France.

    winds, moderate to fresh winds prevail east of 35W, reaching=20
    strong speeds off the coast of Africa. Seas are in the 6-8 ft=20

    Expect fresh to strong NE winds with moderate to rough seas north
    of the front through this evening, and moderate to fresh NE winds
    tonight through Tue morning. Scattered showers and thunderstorms=20
