BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
Seas are expected to continue to subside from 6 feet to around 5 feet or lower from now, onwards as easterly winds gradually diminish. Regardless, choppy seas are posible in some areas over the offshore Atlantic waters as a high pressure system remains over the central Atlantic maintaining a tight pressure gradient across the northeastern Caribbean. 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. Low concentrations of saharan dust will result in hazy skies and a slight reduction in visibility from tonight through this 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.
