BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis

Marine conditions will deteriorate toward the end of the week as easterly winds strengthen and seas build, resulting in hazardous conditions for small craft. Conditions could deteriorate further late this weekend into early next week depending on the development and track of AL92.
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.
