Bermuda to Azores 30 May 2015

PREPARED: MAY 30 09:18Z FM: WEATHER ROUTING INC. (WRI)

SYNOPSIS: THERMAL TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE ALONG W'RN SPAIN AND W'RN PORTUGAL WILL WEAKEN SLIGHTLY ON THE 01ST, BEFORE STRENGTHENING AGAIN ON THE 02ND. OTHERWISE, BROAD HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING ALONG MID OCEAN EXTENDING E'WARD TOWARDS GIBRALTAR WILL PERSIST OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS WITH LITTLE TO NO CHANGE IN STRENGTH EXPECTED.

A STORM EAST OF GREENLAND WILL STRENGTHEN WHILE MOVING E'WARD ALONG N'RN ATLANTIC TOWARDS BRITISH ISLES ON THE 31ST. A LOW PRESSURE TROUGH WILL DEVELOP NEAR 45N/35W ON THE 04TH. TROUGH WILL STRENGTHEN INTO A GALE WHILE TRACKING E'WARD, REACHING 25W BY THE 06TH, BEFORE WEAKENING WHILE DRIFTING NE'WARD ON THE 07TH.

CONCLUSION: BROAD HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING WILL PERSIST ALONG ALL RACE ZONES THROUGH TODAY, ALLOWING FOR PRIMARILY N-NE'LY WINDS AND SEAS. HIGHEST WINDS ARE EXPECTED IN S'RN ZONES DUE TO PROXIMITY TO RIDGING, WITH LIGHTEST WINDS IN N'RN ZONES. BY THIS EVENING SWELLS WILL BE HIGHEST IN ZONE NN AND PP DUE TO SWELLS PROPAGATING S'WARD FROM AFOREMENTIONED STORM TO THE NORTH. HIGHER SWELLS WILLBUILD ON THE 01ST IN GRIDS LL, KK, NN, MM, PP, OO ON THE 01ST/02ND.
