BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
A frontal boundary lingering just north of the region is supporting light to gentle northeasterly winds, while pulses of a long-period northerly swell continue to spread across the Atlantic waters, resulting in hazardous seas for small craft, particularly offshore. This swell will gradually subside late in the week. As the boundary weakens, surface high pressure drifting southeastward will promote a gradual strengthening of winds, becoming moderate from the south over the weekend. Another northerly swell is expected early next week. In addition, remnant moisture from the frontal boundary may enhance shower activity over the waters, with convection capable of producing locally hazardous conditions.
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.
