BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
A broad surface high pressure will maintain moderate to locally fresh winds through at least Saturday. Winds will remain from the east-southeast today, becoming from the east later this evening. Moderate concentrations of Saharan dust will continue to linger across the region throughout the weekend, with slight reductions in visibility. A weak tropical wave is forecast to move across the region today, however, widespread shower activity is not anticipated. A vigorous tropical wave is expected to reach the northeastern Caribbean from late Sunday into Monday, increasing moisture and the potential for thunderstorm activity over the local Caribbean waters, which will result in localized hazardous marine conditions.
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.
