- **Caribbean Sea:** A gale warning is in effect due to strong to near gale force NE-E winds, pulsing to gale force off Colombia each night and morning through the middle of next week. Rough to localized very rough seas are expected near the strongest winds[3].
**Atlantic Weather:**

- **Atlantic Ocean:** A tightening pressure gradient between high pressure in the central Atlantic and a cold front moving through the southeastern United States will support widespread fresh E to SE winds north of 22N overnight into Saturday morning. Strong S winds will be possible off the coast of Florida, north of 28.5N, overnight[3].
