OR MORE BEGINNING SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

FOR THE ATLANTIC / CARIBBEAN WATERS ALONG THE NORTH / SOUTH FACING

...A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT FOR ALL LOCAL ATLANTIC /
CARIBBEAN WATERS AND ALL OPEN PASSAGES...

LONG PERIOD...NORTHWEST SWELLS WILL BEGIN TO AFFECT THE LOCAL
ATLANTIC COASTAL WATERS TONIGHT AND RAMP UP THROUGH MONDAY MORNING.

THESE LONG PERIOD SWELLS WILL PRODUCE LARGE BREAKING WAVES OF
10 TO 15 FEET ALONG THE LOCAL REEFS...BEACHES AND SHOALS OF THE
LOCAL ISLANDS SUNDAY THROUGH AT LEAST TUESDAY MORNING. THEREFORE...A
HIGH SURF ADVISORY HAS BEEN ISSUED.

THESE BREAKING WAVES WILL GENERATE STRONG AND DANGEROUS CURRENTS
WITHIN THE SURF ZONE...CALLED RIP CURRENTS. THESE NARROW OUTWARD
FLOWING CURRENTS CAN CARRY PEOPLE AND ANIMALS AWAY FROM THE COAST
LINE AND OUT TO SEA. IF YOU BECOME CAUGHT IN A RIP CURRENT...DO
NOT PANIC. CALMLY...REMAIN AFLOAT...GATHER YOUR BEARINGS RELATIVE
TO THE BEACH...AND SWIM PARALLEL TO THE BEACH. YOU WILL

THESE BANDS HAVE ALSO BEEN ERODING FROM THE EAST. CURRENTLY IT IS
EXPECTED THAT THE FINAL FRONTAL BAND WILL PASS THROUGH THE AREA
AFTER 2 AM SUNDAY MORNING IN THE NORTH AND BETWEEN 4 AND 6 AM IN
SAINT CROIX. WINDS MAY INCREASE A LITTLE AT THAT TIME AND SOME AREAS
WILL FEEL NOTICEABLY COOLER AND DRIER. A FEW SHOWERS MAY ALSO BE
NOTED OVER LOCAL WATERS.

SMALL CRAFT WILL NEED TO EXERCISE CAUTION IN THE LOCAL OUTER
ATLANTIC WATERS...AS SEAS OF 6 FEET OR LESS AND WINDS OF 15 KNOTS
OR LESS ARE EXPECTED TONIGHT.

INCREASINGLY HAZARDOUS MARINE CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED SUNDAY...AS
LARGE NORTHERLY SWELLS WILL BEGIN TO INVADE THE LOCAL WATERS. A
HIGH SURF ADVISORY WAS ISSUED FOR BREAKERS THAT WILL REACH 10 FEET
OR MORE BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND CONTINUE THROUGH MONDAY. THIS
ADVISORY PERTAINS TO THE NORTHERN VIRGIN ISLANDS ONLY.

TROPICAL WEATHER DISCUSSION
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
805 PM EDT SAT OCT 31 2009

TROPICAL WEATHER DISCUSSION FOR NORTH AMERICA...CENTRAL
AMERICA...GULF OF MEXICO...CARIBBEAN SEA...NORTHERN SECTIONS
OF SOUTH AMERICA...AND ATLANTIC OCEAN TO THE AFRICAN COAST
FROM THE EQUATOR TO 32N. THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IS BASED
ON SATELLITE IMAGERY...METEOROLOGICAL ANALYSIS...WEATHER
OBSERVATIONS...AND RADAR.

BASED ON 1800 UTC SURFACE ANALYSIS AND SATELLITE IMAGERY THROUGH
2315 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

TROPICAL WAVE IS ALONG 45W S OF 16N MOVING W 15-20 KT. WAVE IS
EMBEDDED WITHIN A BROAD AREA OF DEEP LAYERED MOISTURE AS
INDICATED BY TOTAL PRECIPITABLE WATER IMAGERY AND BENEATH
DIFFLUENCE ALOFT WHICH IS GIVING THE AREA SCATTERED MODERATE
CONVECTION FROM 14N-20N BETWEEN 43W-49W.

TROPICAL WAVE IS ALONG 65W S OF 17N MOVING W 10-15 KT. WEAK WAVE
WITH LITTLE SIGNATURE AND A WEAK MOISTURE MAXIMUM ON THE TOTAL
PRECIPITABLE WATER IMAGERY. ISOLATED SHOWERS ARE S OF 15N TO THE
COAST OF VENEZUELA BETWEEN 63W-68W.

TROPICAL WAVE IS ALONG 85W S OF 17N MOVING W NEAR 15 KT. WAVE IS
MOSTLY INLAND OVER CENTRAL AMERICA AND IN THE E PACIFIC REGION
WITH LITTLE SIGNATURE OR ACTIVITY IN THE CARIBBEAN BASIN.

...THE ITCZ...

THE ITCZ AXIS IS CENTERED ALONG 10N12W 7N25W 9N41W 10N48W
10N62W. SCATTERED MODERATE/ISOLATED STRONG CONVECTION IS WITHIN
90 NM EITHER SIDE OF THE ITCZ FROM 17W-22W AND S OF 11N INLAND
OVER SOUTH AMERICA BETWEEN 53W-60W. CLUSTERS OF SCATTERED
MODERATE CONVECTION ARE WITHIN 120/150 NM EITHER SIDE OF THE
ITCZ FROM 22W-38W.

...DISCUSSION...

GULF OF MEXICO...
AS OF 2100 UTC...A COLD FRONT EXTENDS ACROSS THE FLORIDA
PANHANDLE NEAR TALLAHASSEE INTO THE GULF ALONG 24N89W 20N93W
THEN S THROUGH THE BAY OF CAMPECHE TO OVER S MEXICO NEAR 17N93W.
A WELL DEFINED ROPE CLOUD WITH SHOWERS DEFINES THE LEADING EDGE
OF THE FRONT OVER THE GULF. SCATTERED SHOWERS ARE WITHIN 75 NM W
OF THE FRONT WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS/ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS S OF
22N BETWEEN 90W-95W. STRONG NLY WINDS ARE W OF THE FRONT WITH
GALE FORCE WINDS OVER THE SW GULF. THIS FRONT IS SUPPORTED ALOFT
BY A SHARP UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVING ACROSS THE MISSISSIPPI
VALLEY TO OVER THE SE U.S. AND PROVIDING MOIST SWLY DIVERGENT
FLOW ALOFT BETWEEN THE TROUGH AND AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE ANCHORED
IN THE W ATLC COVERING THE E GULF E OF 87W. STRONG SUBSIDENCE
AND DRY STABLE AIR HAS MOVED IN OVER THE NW GULF THUS CLEARING
SKIES W OF A LINE FROM THE MISSISSIPPI COAST TO TAMPICO MEXICO
WITH A SURFACE RIDGE BUILDING BEHIND THE FRONT ANCHORED OVER N
MEXICO BY A 1025 MB HIGH. SIMILAR DRY AIR AND STRONG SUBSIDENCE
IS OVER THE E GULF E OF THE FRONT WITH SOME SCATTERED SEABREEZE
SHOWERS AND POSSIBLE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ARE INLAND ALONG THE
W COAST OF THE FLORIDA PENINSULA. THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO STALL
OVER THE SE GULF SUN NIGHT AS WINDS WILL DIMINISH TO BELOW GALE
FORCE SUN AFTERNOON.

CARIBBEAN SEA...
IN ADDITION TO THE TWO TROPICAL WAVES IN THE CARIBBEAN IS A
SURFACE TROUGH THAT EXTENDS OVER THE SW CARIBBEAN FROM 11N78W TO
THE NE TIP OF NICARAGUA NEAR 14N84W GENERATING SCATTERED
SHOWERS/ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WITHIN 175 NM N OF THE SURFACE
TROUGH. UPPER LOW IS CENTERED OVER GUATEMALA NEAR 15N89W AND IS
GENERATING SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE
YUCATAN PENINSULA AND INTO THE GULF OF MEXICO E OF THE FRONT IN
THE BAY OF CAMPECHE. AN UPPER RIDGE EXTENDS FROM W PANAMA NW TO
THE YUCATAN CHANNEL ENHANCING THE ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH THE
SURFACE TROUGH ABOVE AS WELL AS THE ACTIVITY OVER THE YUCATAN
PENINSULA. THE BROAD UPPER RIDGE ANCHORED IN THE W ATLC IS
FORCING STRONG SUBSIDENCE AND DRY STABLE AIR OVER THE N
CARIBBEAN N OF A LINE FROM THE N LEEWARD ISLANDS ALONG 16N73W TO
21N84W. HOWEVER...SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS AND POSSIBLE ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS ARE OVER THE GREATER ANTILLES DUE TO THE REMNANTS
OF A FRONTAL BOUNDARY THAT DISSIPATES ALONG THE N COAST OF
HISPANIOLA.

ATLANTIC OCEAN...
THE PRIME FOCUS IN THE ATLC WATERS TONIGHT IS THE 1000 MB LOW
CENTERED NEAR 29N47W WITH A COLD FRONT THAT EXTENDS ALONG 27N47W
20N54W TO 19N60W WHERE IT DISSIPATES TO ALONG THE N COAST OF
HISPANIOLA NEAR 20N72W. THE UPPER SUPPORT FOR THIS SYSTEM IS A
LARGE UPPER LOW/TROUGH CENTERED NEAR 27N52W. A LARGE UPPER RIDGE
IS TO THE W ANCHORED OVER THE W ATLC NEAR 30N72W AND A SECOND
UPPER RIDGE TO THE E ANCHORED OVER THE E ATLC NEAR 33N20W. THIS
SCENARIO IS TAPPING INTO TROPICAL MOISTURE AND GENERATING A
LARGE AREA OF SCATTERED SHOWERS/ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WITHIN
120 NM W OF THE FRONT AND WITHIN 150 NM E OF THE FRONT E OF
54W...FROM 26N-30N BETWEEN 50W-56W...AND N OF 30N FROM 34W-54W.
STRONG SUBSIDENCE COVERS THE W ATLC BUT SCATTERED/BROKEN LOW
LEVEL CLOUDS REMAIN PRESENT. HOWEVER...THE SAME SCENARIO OF DRY
AIR AND STRONG SUBSIDENCE IS ALSO OVER THE E ATLC BUT WITH
RATHER CLEAR SKIES TONIGHT. A SURFACE RIDGE OVER THE W ATLC IS
ANCHORED BY A 1030 MB HIGH JUST SE OF THE CANADIAN MARITIMES
WITH A SECOND SURFACE RIDGE OVER THE E ATLC ANCHORED BY A 1026
MB HIGH N OF MADEIRA ISLANDS.

OF SOUTH AMERICA...AND ATLANTIC OCEAN TO THE AFRICAN COAST
FROM THE EQUATOR TO 32N. THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IS BASED
ON SATELLITE IMAGERY...METEOROLOGICAL ANALYSIS...WEATHER
OBSERVATIONS...AND RADAR.

BASED ON 0600 UTC SURFACE ANALYSIS AND SATELLITE IMAGERY
THROUGH 1015 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

AN ATLANTIC OCEAN TROPICAL WAVE IS ALONG 49W TO THE SOUTH OF
16N MOVING WESTWARD 10 TO 15 KT. THIS WAVE IS MOVING TOWARD
AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH. THIS IS THE SAME TROUGH THAT HAS BEEN
SUPPORTING THE 1001 MB GALE LOW PRESSURE CENTER AND THE CENTRAL
ATLANTIC FRONTAL BOUNDARY. UPPER LEVEL SOUTHWESTERLY WIND FLOW
IS ON TOP OF THE AREA THROUGH WHICH THIS WAVE IS MOVING. SHOWERS
AND POSSIBLE THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEEN IN THE AREA FROM 10N TO 20N
BETWEEN 40W AND 53W FOR AT LEAST THE LAST SIX HOURS. IT IS
EASILY POSSIBLE THAT SOME PRECIPITATION REMAINS.

AN EASTERN CARIBBEAN SEA TROPICAL WAVE IS ALONG 66W/67W TO THE
SOUTH OF 16N MOVING WESTWARD 10 TO 15 KT. THIS WAVE IS MOVING
THROUGH THE AREA OF AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH. ISOLATED MODERATE
SHOWERS FROM 13N TO 15N BETWEEN 62W AND 70W PROBABLY ARE RELATED
TO THE TROUGH AND THEY MAY NOT BE RELATED TO THE WAVE.

A WESTERN CARIBBEAN SEA TROPICAL WAVE IS ALONG 87W...PASSING
THROUGH HONDURAS...TO THE SOUTH OF 17N MOVING WESTWARD 10 KT.
THIS WAVE IS MOVING THROUGH THE AREA OF THE BELIZE UPPER LEVEL
CYCLONIC CIRCULATION CENTER.

...THE ITCZ...

12N15W 9N28W 10N48W...INTO NORTHEASTERN VENEZUELA NEAR 10N62W.
WIDELY SCATTERED MODERATE SHOWERS AND ISOLATED STRONG
THUNDERSTORMS FROM 5N TO 8N BETWEEN AFRICA AND 26W...AND
FROM 6N TO 9N BETWEEN 40W AND 46W.

...DISCUSSION...

THE NORTHWESTERN CARIBBEAN SEA INCLUDING SOUTHERN MEXICO AND
THE SOUTHWESTERN GULF OF MEXICO...
THE ONE-TIME HEALTHY LARGE-SCALE UPPER LEVEL CYCLONIC
CIRCULATION CENTER DURING THE LAST FOUR DAYS HAS DIMINISHED IN
SIZE AND INFLUENCE. ONE CYCLONIC CENTER NOW IS IN SOUTHERN
BELIZE. A SECOND CYCLONIC CENTER IS IN THE EASTERN ISTHMUS
OF TEHUANTEPEC. THE CYCLONIC FLOW AROUND THIS CENTER STILL IS
APPARENT FROM THE COASTS OF GUATEMALA AND EL SALVADOR TO THE
WATERS JUST TO THE NORTH OF THE YUCATAN PENINSULA BETWEEN 86W
AND 96W. SHOWERS REMAIN ALONG THE COAST FROM THE GULF OF HONDURAS
TO THE NORTHEASTERN YUCATAN PENINSULA COAST...AND FROM 23N89W
TO 18N93W. SHOWERS REMAIN IN WESTERN NICARAGUA IN AN AREA OF
UPPER LEVEL DIFFLUENT WIND FLOW.

THE REST OF THE GULF OF MEXICO...
THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH THAT SUPPORTS THE CURRENT COLD FRONT
HAS MOVED NORTHEASTWARD BEYOND NORTHERN GEORGIA. THE FRONT
HAS BEEN SLOWING DOWN DURING THE LAST 24 HOURS. MOISTURE WITH
THE FRONT COVERS THE AREA BETWEEN THE YUCATAN PENINSULA AND
THE SOUTHWESTERN CORNER OF THE GULF OF MEXICO NORTHEASTWARD...
NARROWING TO THE FLORIDA BIG BEND. DRY AIR IN SUBSIDENCE
SURROUNDS THE MOISTURE WITH THE FRONT. THE COLD FRONT PASSES
THROUGH NORTHEASTERN FLORIDA INTO THE EAST-CENTRAL GULF OF
MEXICO...CURVING TOWARD THE WATERS THAT ARE JUST OFF THE
NORTHWESTERN CORNER OF THE YUCATAN PENINSULA...AND FINALLY TO
THE EASTERN ISTHMUS OF TEHUANTEPEC OF MEXICO. SHOWERS ARE ABOUT
100 NM TO THE NORTH OF THE YUCATAN PENINSULA...AND TO THE SOUTH
OF 21N TO THE EAST OF 94W. GALE FORCE WINDS ARE OBSERVED TO THE
SOUTH OF 21N TO THE WEST OF THE FRONT.

THE REST OF THE CARIBBEAN SEA...
THE GFS MODEL FOR 500 MB SHOWS A NORTHWEST-TO-SOUTHEAST ORIENTED
INVERTED TROUGH FROM NORTHEASTERN NICARAGUA TO THE NORTHERN
COLOMBIA COAST ALONG 74W/75W. SHOWERS AND POSSIBLE THUNDERSTORMS
HAVE BEEN IN THE AREA OF THE 500 MB INVERTED TROUGH SINCE
31/2245 UTC. 500 MB ANTICYCLONIC FLOW AND BROAD 200 MB CYCLONIC
FLOW ON TOP OF THAT...MIXED IN WITH THE DRY AIR IN SUBSIDENCE
FROM 24 HOURS AGO...COVER THE REST OF THE AREA.

THE ATLANTIC OCEAN...
DEEP LAYER CYCLONIC FLOW AROUND A 32N53W CYCLONIC CIRCULATION
CENTER COVERS THE AREA FROM 18N TO 35N BETWEEN 45W AND 70W.
THE TROUGH FROM THIS CENTER EVENTUALLY EXTENDS TO THE EASTERN
CARIBBEAN SEA NEAR 15N60W AND 13N78W. THIS DEEP LAYER TROUGH
SUPPORTS THE 1001 MB GALE LOW PRESSURE CENTER THAT IS NEAR
31N52W. A STATIONARY FRONT PASSES THROUGH 31N47W TO 24N48W...
CURVING TO 19N59W AND 21N67W. BROKEN TO OVERCAST MULTILAYERED
CLOUDS AND POSSIBLE PRECIPITATION COVER THE AREA TO THE NORTH
OF 10N BETWEEN 40W AND 60W.
