September 28, 2011
Today's
weather, again is, essentially a replay of yesterday's weather. Skies
will be mostly sunny, with some mid to high level cloudiness. Winds
will be easterly at 10 mph to 15 mph. Seas will be 1 to 3 feet. Winds
and seas will continue to moderate through the weekend.
A
cold front will move into the NW Gulf of Mexico, Friday and extend
from near Tampa Bay to NE Mexico on Saturday. By Sunday, it will
reach from S Florida to the Bay of Campeche, Mexico. Strong high
pressure will build SE behind the front, across the north-central
Gulf.
The
air temperatures will be in the 80s to the mid 90s (F) or 27 to 32
(C). With the heat index, at times, it may feel like 100 plus
degrees. Everyone, especially, divers should be well hydrated.
At
depth, ocean water temperatures are about 82F to 88F or 28C to 31C .
Visibility is generally 40 to 60 feet.

The
Tropical Weather Outlook
TD
Ophelia is centered at 18.6N by 60.0W; moving NW at 3 mph. Maximum
sustained winds are 35 mph. This storm continues to meander westward.
It is expected to strengthen later today into a TS. Until it truly
moves off to the north, all interests in the Bay Islands should
monitor this storm system closely for further development.
TS
Phillipe is still located in the far eastern tropical Atlantic and is
centered at 16.5N by 38.0W; moving WNW at 12 mph. Maximum sustained
winds are 40 mph. This system currently does not pose a threat to us.
Else
where, tropical storm formation is not expected for the next 24
hours.
