BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
Surface high pressure extending across the western and central Atlantic will continue to support moderate east to east- southeasterly winds across the regional waters, becoming locally fresh at times. Increasing moisture associated with a tropical wave will promote additional shower and thunderstorm development across the western local waters and Mona Passage into tonight. Locally higher winds, choppy seas, and reduced visibility can be expected in and around thunderstorms. Saharan dust concentrations will increase tonight and peak on Wednesday, resulting in hazy skies and slightly reduced visibility. A weak long-period northerly swell remains forecast to arrive and spread across the regional waters by Thursday.
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.
