72 Hours Outlook

A low pressure (cold-core) area lingers north of the island chain, creating weak unstable conditions and is expected to spread some showers across the islands as it drifts eastwards. Isolated showers are likely across St.Vincent tonight and Tuesday, with a few showers across St.Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG) by early Wednesday and possibly lingering on Thursday.

Light-gentle (5 - 15km/h) winds vary between east north-east and east south-east across our islands. Directions become variable with occasional cool air by late Tuesday, reducing to calm (~0km/h) at times during Wednesday and Thursday.

Sea conditions are slight to moderate in open water, ranging 0.5 - 1.0m west of our islands and 1.0 - 1.5m east of our islands and slight (0.5m - 1.2m) sea conditions are expected across SVG by late Tuesday. However, occasional northerly swells west of SVG Tuesday night, could spread across SVG by Thursday...Small-craft operators and sea-bathers should be alert for occasional surf and rip currents.
