      NWS Tropical Atlantic Marine Weather Briefing – April 5, 2026


      united states coast guard

      Good afternoon Mariners,

      The latest Tropical Atlanic Marine Weather Briefing is now available at: https://youtu.be/k4pa4rceCL8
      The Key Messages for this briefing:
      • Fresh to strong E winds and rough seas persist N of the Bahamas through Monday.
      • High pressure builds in behind a cold front, leading to widespread E to NE winds near gale-force and very rough seas in the W Atlantic and NE Gulf of America for much of this week.
      • Other than fresh to strong trades and locally rough seas offshore NW Colombia, no significant hazards are expected in the Caribbean.

      Safe Sailing!
