Cloudy conditions are expected to continue across St. Vincent & the Grenadines as pockets of low-level moisture linger, promoting unstable conditions. A favourable upper-level environment(an upper-level jetstream) still exists and is the main catalyst behind the enhanced showers experienced across our islands. Spells of light to moderate activity is still likely on occasions over the weekend as the jet slowly moves away from the region. Due to the already saturated nature of soils, residents and motorists should be alert in areas prone to flooding and landslides or near rivers and streams. Be alert also for possible impacts resulting from rain-soaked ash. The Atlantic high pressure system would attempt to rebuild around late Sunday and this could provide some improved conditions on Monday.
Light to gentle(10-20km/h) east north easterly to easterly trades will cross the islands over the next 24 hours. On Sunday, the flow may become occasionally moderate(near 25km/h). On Monday winds could slightly increase(near 30km/h).
Seas are currently slight on western coasts peaking to 1.0m and moderate on eastern coasts nearing 2.0 m. Occasionally slight (0.5m to 1.2m )conditions are likely from Saturday onward. Slight Saharan dust haze concentrations may be visible from Monday afternoon.
