BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
Small Craft Advisories remain in effect for the Atlantic waters through midnight and for the local passages through this afternoon as moderate to locally strong easterly winds continue to generate choppy to rough seas of up to 7 feet. These hazardous conditions are being driven by a strong high pressure system over the central Atlantic maintaining a tight pressure gradient across the northeastern Caribbean. Conditions are expected to gradually improve during the second half of the week as winds decrease and seas subside. Mariners should also remain alert for afternoon thunderstorms developing near the western coastal waters of Puerto Rico, which may produce locally higher winds, rough seas, and dangerous lightning.
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.
