72 Hours Outlook

A low pressure system north of the islands would still continue to affect the weather conditions across the Eastern Caribbean. As a result, light wind speeds will continue to facilitate warm conditions and occasionally cloudy skies could generate a few pockets of showers. Fair conditions are forecast for Sunday before a shearline saffect the islands from nightfall into Monday allowing for some light to moderate scattered showers.

Light and gentle(< 15km/h) wind speeds with varying directions can be expected during the next 24 hours. Wind speeds should then become east north easterly and increase(15-30km/h)  from Sunday. Seas should remain slight to moderate in open water with swells peaking up to 1.0 m on western coasts and near to 2.0m on eastern coasts. However due to the presnece of long period swells, sea bathers and small craft operators should exercise caution near the shoreline for breaking wave action and rip currents. No significant dust haze instrusion is anticipated within the next 3 days.
