THIS RIDGE WILL BUILD N'WARD WHILE GRADUALLY STRENGTHENING THROUGH THE 18TH AS THE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE STRENGTHENS AND TRACKS TO APPROXIMATELY 45N/15W. A TROUGH OF LOW
PRESSURE IS CURRENTLY LOCATED WEST OF THE IBERIAN PENINSULA. THIS TROUGH WILL WEAKEN WHILE TRACKING E'WARD OVER SPAIN AND THEN WILL STRENGTHEN WHILE MOVING S'WARD OVER GIBRALTAR OVER THE 19TH, INTERACTING WITH THE STRENGTHENING RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE.

CONDITIONS WILL THEN TEND HIGHEST IN ZONE DDD DUE TO THE STRONG INTERACTION BETWEEN THE THERMAL TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE
AND THE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING WEST OF THE IBERIAN PENINSULA, WITH WINDS GUSTING TO 26KTS AND SWELLS BUILDING TO 8 FEET. BROAD HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING WILL THEN COVER THE REMAINDER OF THE GRIDS, WITH SWELLS BEGINNING TO BUILD IN ZONE EEE TOMORROW EVENING AS A FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST.
