BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
Predominantly tranquil conditions will persist across the local waters for the rest of the week. A surface high pressure moving east across the northwestern Atlantic will maintain gentle to moderate E winds, shifting to ESE by Saturday as the high pressure moves into the central Atlantic. A small long-period NNE swell approaching the Atlantic waters will linger into the weekend. By early next week an additional NNW swell will reach the Atlantic waters as a distant surface low pressure moves east into the western Atlantic. Showers and ⛈️ isolated thunderstorms may produce locally hazardous conditions each afternoon, particularly across the western and coastal 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.
