BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
Light to moderate easterly trade winds will continue to prevail across the region over the next few days. Seas peaking up to 5 feet today will gradually ease to 2 to 4 feet later in the workweek. By late tonight into Wednesday, an approaching tropical wave will draw in deep moisture, increasing the potential for showers and thunderstorms across most local waters. This will elevate localized lightning hazards and bring gusty winds over the marine zones through midweek. Also, expect hazy skies across the northeastern Caribbean due to suspended Saharan dust, with higher concentrations after the wave passage.
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.
