BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
Moderate to fresh easterly winds will persist across the regional waters through next week as strong high pressure remains anchored over the central Atlantic. This pattern will maintain choppy to rough seas of up to 7 feet across the offshore Atlantic waters and local passages. As a result, a Small Craft Advisory remains in effect through at least Tuesday morning for portions of the offshore Atlantic waters, while small craft operators elsewhere should continue to exercise caution. In addition, isolated afternoon thunderstorms may develop near the western coastal waters of Puerto Rico each day, producing locally higher winds and seas.
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.
