LONG PERIOD...NORTH NORTHWEST SWELLS WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT THE
LOCAL ATLANTIC COASTAL WATERS AND THE CARIBBEAN PASSAGES THROUGH AT
LEAST LATE THURSDAY MORNING. THESE 5 TO 7 FOOT SWELLS WILL BE
GRADUALLY SUBSIDING...BUT WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE LARGE BREAKING
WAVES OF 10 TO 14 FEET AND LOCALLY HIGHER...ALONG THE LOCAL
REEFS...BEACHES AND SHOALS OF THE NORTHWEST THROUGH NORTHEAST
COASTS OF THE LOCAL ISLANDS...MAKING FOR VERY DANGEROUS SURF
CONDITIONS. THEREFORE...A HIGH SURF ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN JUAN PR
1138 PM AST SUN FEB 18 2007

.UPDATE...MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES PREVAILED THIS EVENING ACROSS THE
LOCAL ISLANDS. LIGHT SOUTH SOUTHEAST WINDS HAVE BEEN NOTICED SINCE
THIS AFTERNOON OVER THE FA AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER
THE EASTERN ATLANTIC WHICH EXTENDS SOUTHWESTWARD ACROSS THE
NORTHERN CARIBBEAN WEAKENS. A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY LOCATED TONIGHT
OVER THE CENTRAL ATLANTIC AND EXTENDS SOUTHWESTWARD ACROSS THE
EASTERN PART OF HISPANIOLA IS EXPECTED TO DISSIPATE WITHIN THE NEXT 24
HOURS. HOWEVER...A SECOND FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACROSS THE WINDWARD
PASSAGE CONTINUING ACROSS THE YUCATAN PENINSULA IS MOVING RAPIDLY
TONIGHT OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC AND EXPECTED TO ARRIVE THE
LOCAL OFF SHORE WATERS BY MONDAY AFTERNOON. STRONG HIGH PRESSURE
SYSTEM BEHIND THIS BOUNDARY WILL INCREASE THE WINDS ACROSS THE
LOCAL AREA AND LOCAL COASTAL WATERS MONDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH AT
LEAST THURSDAY.

VARIABLY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES WILL BE NOTICED ACROSS THE
NORTHWEST PART OF THE ISLAND ON MONDAY AS FRONTAL BOUNDARY
APPROACHES. DIURNAL HEATING AND LOCAL ISLAND EFFECTS COULD AID THE
DEVELOPMENT OF WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS OVER SECTIONS OF THE
WESTERN INTERIOR OF PUERTO RICO...WHILE THE REST OF THE ISLAND
COULD SEE LIGHT ISOLATED SHOWERS FROM TIME TO TIME.

OVER WATERS...A FEW ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS COULD BE POSSIBLE
MONDAY NIGHT AS MID TO UPPER TROUGH REMAINS NEAR STATIONARY OVER
THE OFF SHORE ATLANTIC WATERS.

NORTH NORTHEAST SWELLS AND CONFUSED SEAS ARE EXPECTED LATE MONDAY
NIGHT INTO TUESDAY. SEAS WILL BE GRADUALLY INCREASING MONDAY
AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING HOURS. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL BE
REQUIRED FOR MOST OF OUR LOCAL WATERS TO ENCOUNTER FOR THIS
SITUATION DURING THE OVERNIGHT OR MID MORNING FORECAST PACKAGE.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 310 PM AST SUN FEB 18 2007/

SYNOPSIS...A 1023 MB HIGH OVER THE EASTERN ATLANTIC EXTENDED
WEST SOUTHWESTWARD TO HISPANIOLA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...AND WAS
MAINTAINING A WEAK COLD FRONT NEARLY STATIONARY ACROSS THE EXTREME
SOUTHEAST BAHAMAS AND WESTERN ATLANTIC. A SECOND COLD FRONT LEFT THE
EAST COAST OF THE U.S. THIS AFTERNOON...AND WILL SWEEP ACROSS THE
WEST AND SOUTHWEST ATLANTIC OVERNIGHT AND MONDAY...AND IS FORECAST
TO MOVE INTO THE LOCAL ATLANTIC WATERS MONDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...AND BECOME NEARLY STATIONARY THROUGH TUESDAY. HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDING BEHIND THIS FRONT WILL INDUCE FRESH TRADE WINDS
WITH AND AHEAD OF THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.
LARGE NORTHWESTERLY SWELLS WILL INVADE THE REGIONAL WATERS TUESDAY
AND DOMINATE MARINE CONDITIONS THROUGH THURSDAY.

DISCUSSION...LIGHT SOUTHEAST LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL BECOME VARIABLE
OVERNIGHT SHIFTING TO THE NORTHEAST MONDAY IN RESPONSE OF AN
APPROACHING WEAK COLD FRONT. LATEST QUICKSCAT WINDS OVER THE LOCAL
AREA MATCHED REASONABLY WELL WHEN COMPARED TO THE GFS WINDS.
VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATED A BAND OF CLOUDS OVER THE
SOUTHERN BAHAMAS ASSOCIATED TO THE FRONT AND AN AREA OF LOW LEVEL
CLOUDS ACROSS THE LEEWARD ISLANDS MOVING WEST AT NEAR 15 MPH. 12Z
SOUNDING SHOWED AN INVERSION AT AROUND 825 MB WITH MOST OF THE
MOISTURE CONFINED BELOW THAT LEVEL. MODEL GUIDANCE SHOWING A
SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN THE WINDS SPEED ASSOCIATED WITH THE ADVENT
OF THE COLD FRONT. I REDUCED THE SPEEDS 3 TO 4 KNOTS FOR SOME OF
THE GRIDS BECAUSE FOUND THEM TOO HIGH FOR A WEAK FRONT. ANOTHER
COLD FRONT...OVER NORTHERN CUBA AND EXTENDING NORTHEAST THROUGH THE
NORTHERN BAHAMAS IS PUSHING SOUTHEAST RAPIDLY. THE MONA PASSAGE
SHOULD FEEL STRONGER WINDS.

LOW LEVEL SPEED CONVERGENCE ASSOCIATED TO THIS FEATURE WILL
PRODUCE SCATTERED SHOWERS ESPECIALLY ALONG THE NORTHERN HALF OF
THE ISLAND MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY.

LONG TERM...A RETURN TO A DRIER WEATHER REGIME IS EXPECTED BY MID
OF THE WEEK.

AVIATION...ASH EMISSIONS CONTINUE BY THE SOUFRIERE IN MONTSERRAT.
WINDS OVER THAT AREA ARE BLOWING TOWARD THE WEST AND IS EXPECTED
TO BECOME NORTHEAST LATE MONDAY. THIS LESSENS THE CHANCE FOR THE
ASH TO MOVE IN THE LOCAL AREA.

MARINE...LARGE LONG PERIOD NORTHWEST AND NORTHEAST SWELLS WILL
BE ARRIVING TO OUR LOCAL COASTAL WATERS MONDAY NIGHT AND BUILD
THROUGH WEDNESDAY. THE LARGE SWELLS AND INCREASING WINDS WILL
PRODUCE VERY ROUGH SEA CONDITIONS THROUGH THURSDAY.

FIRE WEATHER...STRONG INSOLATION...DRY GRASS AND BUSHES OVER THE
SOUTHERN SLOPES AND PLAINS OF PUERTO RICO MAKE THAT ZONE
SUSCEPTIBLE TO GRASS FIRES.

HYDROLOGY...THE HIGHER CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION ALONG THE
NORTHERN SLOPES AND PLAINS WILL BE MONDAY NIGHT TO THURSDAY.
