BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
A surface high pressure over the Atlantic is promoting moderate to locally fresh easterly winds, particularly across the offshore Atlantic waters and local Caribbean passages resulting in moderate to choppy seas through Monday. Small craft operators should exercise caution in those areas. Seas slightly subside around Tuesday, then build up to 6 to 7 feet by mid-week onward due to a northerly swell spreading across the Atlantic waters.
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.
Coastal Waters — East of Puerto Rico, Vieques, Culebra & St. John
