BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
A broad surface high pressure over the central Atlantic will promote moderate to locally fresh east to east-southeasterly winds across the regional waters through at least today. From late today into early next week, winds will turn more easterly as another surface high pressure builds over the western Atlantic. These breezy conditions will maintain choppy seas, particularly across the offshore and exposed Atlantic and Caribbean waters. A Small Craft Advisory is now in effect for the offshore Atlantic waters through Monday afternoon. Afternoon and early evening ⛈️ isolated thunderstorms can be expected each day across the northwestern 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.
