GRADIENT WILL RELAX SIGNIFICANTLY NEXT FEW DAYS.

OF SHOWERS WERE NOTED MAINLY ACROSS THE MONA PASSAGE...WITH FEW
SHOWERS BRUSHING THE SOUTHWEST COAST OF PUERTO RICO. FORTUNATELY...
MOST ACTIVITY REMAINED OVER THE ATLANTIC WATERS...NORTH OF PUERTO
RICO. HURRICANE TOMAS IS EXPECTED TO LINGER NEAR 400 MILES NORTH
OF THE AREA DURING THE NEXT 24 HOURS...WHICH WILL KEEP BANDS OF
MOISTURE ACROSS THE REGION FOR AT LEAST 24 HOURS. DUE TO HIGH
MOISTURE CONTENT AND THE SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST WIND FLOW EXPECTED TO
PREVAIL ACROSS THE REGION AS TOMAS LINGER NORTH OF THE AREA...AND
WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO WEAKEN CONSIDERABLY...FLASH FLOOD WATCH
CONTINUES IN EFFECT UNTIL MONDAY AFTERNOON. MODELS SUGGEST SHOWERS

NORTHERN SLOPES. ALSO...THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS COULD SEE SOME
HEAVY RAIN BANDS ASSOCIATED WITH TOMAS MOVING ACROSS THE TERRITORY
FROM TIME TO TIME TODAY...AND CONTINUING THROUGH AT LEAST MONDAY
MORNING. PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL RELAX SIGNIFICANTLY ACROSS THE
NORTHEAST CARIBBEAN...WHICH WILL PRODUCE A DECREASE IN WIND SPEED
ACROSS THE REGION. THIS WILL KEEP ANY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR
LONGER PERIOD OF TIME THAN PREVIOUS DAYS OVER THE SAME
AREA....WHICH WILL PRODUCE BETTER ACCUMULATION OF RAINFALL.
AS TOMAS MOVES FARTHER AWAY FROM THE LOCAL AREA THE NEXT DAY OR
TWO...DRIER AIR WILL BE IN PLACE ACROSS THE NORTHEAST
CARIBBEAN...WITH WINDS SHIFTING MORE NORTHERLY. THIS WILL DIMINISH
THE CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION...MAINLY MONDAY AFTERNOON. IN THE
LONG TERM...A MORE TYPICAL NOVEMBER WEATHER PATTERN IS EXPECTED
ACROSS THE REGION...WITH ONLY SHOWERS DEVELOPING ACROSS THE
CORDILLERA CENTRAL OF PUERTO RICO...AND WITH WINDS MAINLY FROM THE

Re: Re:
Yesterday, some friends who live in the parish of St. Michael said they got very high wind gusts on Thursday around the same time your report was posted, caribsue. Additionally, family members of theirs who live in St. Vincent called to say they were experiencing similar conditions on that island. So, I guess it must have been a feeder band from Tomas.abajan wrote:According to Meteorologist David Best, the airport recorded a wind gust of 40 mph and some people became concerned (obviously as a result of the recent experience with Tomas) but I didn’t notice any unusual winds here. There was a bit of rain this morning around 10 o’clock though.caribsue wrote:Don't know what is causing it but we on the south coast of Barbados are experiencing some fairly strong gusts of winds right now so much so that one of the galvenized sheets on our little gazebo is flapping about and the patio chairs have been blown into a corner. We had some fairly heavy rain this morning around 10am and it is just starting again now.

Ok so be aware and vigilant Barbara as Yellow alert have required for you in the Northern Leewards for a risk of rough or dangerous sea and strong showers and tstorms.
http://www.meteo.fr/temps/domtom/antill ... ivi_in.pdfTomas does not want to move away from the Greater and Lesser Antilles
. That's fairly incredible and a bit upsetting! Yellow alert have been required for Martinica for an unusual swell from west direction. Curiously no yellow alert for Guadeloupe 
hope that nothing bad will occur in the Northern Leewards. This season is not over so i will continue to be very very vigilant...
