72 Hours Outlook

A High Pressure System continues to transport Saharan dust across the Atlantic Ocean, creating hazy conditions with poor visibility and air quality across our islands. Dust concentrations are becoming patchy, which allowed low–level clouds with a few showers across parts of St.Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG) last night and today and again, a few scattered showers are likely tonight and during Wednesday…Small-craft operators and persons with respiratory concerns should continue to exercise caution for varying visibility and air-quality within haze patches...An approaching tropical wave could reduce haze during Thursday, allowing shower activity before hazy conditions return by night-fall.

Moderate to fresh (~25 – 40 km/h)
