Synopsis for the the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas

.SYNOPSIS...Hurricane Beryl is moving into the NW Caribbean and
is forecast to remain away from the Atlantic basin. Otherwise,
central Atlantic high pressure extends a weak ridge
southwestward to N Florida to support gentle to moderate winds
and slight to moderate seas north of 25N, with moderate to fresh
trades and mainly moderate seas south of 25N. Winds and seas will
be locally strong north of Puerto Rico, Hispaniola and into the
Windward Passage through early Fri as Beryl exits the Caribbean.
Meanwhile, a decaying cold front from 30N to 31N will sink south
to 29N through early Thu, then stall and dissipate through Fri
night. High pressure will build westward and into the Bahamas
over the weekend.
