Weather Outlook 26th June 2020 (6 pm)
Atlantic High Pressure System continues to transport Saharan dust, creating hazy conditions with poor visibility and air quality across St.Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG)…Small-craft operators and persons with respiratory concerns should continue to exercise caution for varying visibility and air-quality within haze patches... Scattered showers are likely as surges in the wind-flow push low-level clouds across our islands. Some thinning of dust concentrations and an approaching tropical wave could allow a few showers Monday, with increased showers and thunderstorm activity Tuesday afternoon.
Winds could surge with fresh to occasionally strong (~30 – 50 km/h) east north-easterly trades across SVG tonight and Saturday night, reducing
to moderate (20 - 30 km/h) breeze by Sunday; with varying directions during Sunday and Monday.
Moderate sea-conditions are across our islands and expected to deteriorate Saturday with easterly swells near 2.0 m on western coasts and above 2.5 m on eastern coasts…Small craft-operators and sea-bathers should exercise caution for reduced visibility, above normal sea-swells and occasional strong gusts. Swell heights could start falling across SVG Saturday night and slight to moderate (1.2 – 2.0 m) sea-conditions are expected by Sunday evening.
