Synopsis: broad gale centered between Madeira and Gibraltar Strait will weaken and move NE across Gibraltar towards the Balearics THRU tomorrow morning. Circulations from this gale will remain extended SW across the canaries into tomorrow morning. Thermal trough will develop within circulations thru the day, extending from Morocco along s'rn Portugal, persisting into 2/12. Broad ridging extends SW across the central Atlantic from 55W towards Cape Verde Islands this morning from high pressure near 33N/37W. High slides NE over Azores THRU tomorrow afternoon, with ridging remaining across the e'rn central Atlantic. Frontal boundary will extend SW from near 40N/43W towards 25N and 60W by this evening. Frontal boundary will slide ENE to extend from near 40N/35W SW towards 25N/55W thru late 1/12, weakening south of 35N, eventually disseating S of 35N by late 2/12. Broad high pressure ridging will have remained extended across e'rn central Atlantic during this time, with stronger ridging building SE across the central Atlantic from large strong high moving offshore Canadian Maritimes 3/12-4/12. Conclusion: very large swells extend across grids AA BB and e'rn CC this morning, and will build into HH and GG thru the next 12-24hrs from north to south. Areas within/directly south-southeast of the Canaries are seeing some protection from swells and winds, and will generally see swells lower more quickly then any other grid moving thru the next 2 days strong N winds enhanced by gale/high interactions will blow across BB and into N GG and N HH today, lowering and becoming more uniform into tomorrow. To the west, trade winds will tend to ease across DD, n'rn and central II, and n'rn JJ into tomorrow as above noted frontal boundary breaks high pressure across central Atlantic and eases enhanced trades. However as front lifts away thru coming days, trades are re-energized with building ridging in the long range.
