BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
A mid to upper-level trough will maintain an unstable weather pattern across the regional waters, resulting in periods of strong thunderstorms through at least Saturday. Thunderstorms will produce locally higher winds, frequent lightning, and reduced visibility. A surface high over the Atlantic will promote mainly moderate easterly winds, occasionally fresh at times, resulting in moderate to locally choppy seas over the weekend. A small northeasterly swell will also continue to propagate across the Atlantic waters and Caribbean passages through early next week.
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.
