BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
A broad surface high over the western and central Atlantic will maintain moderate easterly winds and generally favorable marine conditions tonight into Friday. Seas of 3 to 5 feet may occasionally reach 6 feet across the offshore waters and local Caribbean passages. Winds will increase to 15 to 20 knots over the weekend, resulting in choppier seas. Afternoon thunderstorms over western Puerto Rico may briefly produce gusty winds, rough seas, frequent lightning, and an occasional waterspout. Saharan dust returning late Friday may also reduce visibility at times through the weekend.
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.
