BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
A strong surface high pressure over the western Atlantic will promote moderate to fresh trades through midweek. Winds will turn more east to southeast thereafter as the surface high moves into the central Atlantic. These breezy conditions will maintain choppy seas, particularly across the offshore and exposed Atlantic and Caribbean waters. A Small Craft Advisory is in effect for the offshore Atlantic waters through at least late Tuesday. Afternoon and early evening ⛈️ isolated thunderstorms can be expected each day across the northwestern waters of Puerto Rico.
Seas are provided as a range of the average height of the highest 1/3 of the waves, along with the occasional height of the average highest 10 percent of the waves.
