Synopsis
A slack pressure gradient across the Caribbean will continue to support light winds along with slight seas across the Cayman area for the next 24 hours. Further to the northwest a cold front extends over the Gulf of Mexico with a pre-frontal trough ahead of it, extending over the extreme northwest Caribbean. While the cold front is expected to enter the Caribbean, the pre-frontal trough is expected to support a few showers and possible thunder across the Cayman area over the next 24 hours. Radar images show scattered showers south and west of Grand Cayman which are moving northward.
